Founded in 1998, Silverback Music Management has become a platform for independent artists to navigate through the music industry as a positive force, with a deep-rooted penchant for serious touring, recording, performance and entertainment. Silverback exists as a multi-faceted partner to its artists, identifying their creative and conceptual goals and cultivating the artist’s vision and raw talent. Continuously striving for a progressive business model within an ever-changing music industry, Silverback possesses cutting-edge management solutions to represent their artists' vision with ultimate integrity.

With a stylistic focus initially rooted within the subcultural fusion of its original California bred forerunners Sublime and Slightly Stoopid, Silverback's creative vision continues to grow within the spectrum of genre-bending improvisational rock, dub reggae, psychedelic blues, punk rock, acoustic, soul, and funk. Silverback generates a genre defying and “genre bending” attitude which permeates its artists' and partners' vision within a metamorphosing pop culture.

Silverback’s services include artist representation, career direction, recording and distribution; innovative social media, marketing, brand development, public relations; tour management and production;
corporate sponsorship and merchandising.

Current artist roster includes Slightly Stoopid, Fishbone, Rebelution, The Expendables, The Beautiful Girls, Mat McHugh, The Aggrolites and Ivan Neville's Dumpstaphunk.
