and we’re looking to grow.
If you are crazy enough to want to work in the music business - and help change it - we are looking for you.
We don’t care if you went to school for music business.
Honestly, we truly don’t care if you have a degree at all.
We’re just tickled you actually read the front page and have an attention to detail!
The ideal candidate to work at Well Kept Secret is:
- a kind, thoughtful, decent human being that treats others with respect (this is the most important)
- highly organized but willing & eager to break some rules
- a natural leader who is interested in building communities
- an expert level social media user with a healthy cynicism about it’s influence on society
- someone who has been “on tour” before and understands the life of a musician
- comfortable with computers and data entry and understands the power of details
- a go-getter that has dabbled in & is enthusiastic about artist management
- an entreprenurial spirit that wants to be encouraged to chase a good idea
- someone who thinks of this business as a public service and not an exercise in ego
- highly communicative but self-aware enough to know when to zip it
- someone who believes in the power of music & art to improve our world
We’d love for you to be proficient at the following:
- Google Drive and all it’s various mechanisms
- Social media: Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, etc
- Adobe Creative Suite: Photoshop, Premiere, etc
- YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, any/all DSPs

And the ever-so-desired special stars will appear on your application if you:
-
Understand why e-mail/texts create paper trails and why we like to communicate that way
- Actually play an instrument and/or actively create music/art
- Have ever worked at a record store/record label/artist management company
- Would rather get shit done than have another meeting about it
We may hire tomorrow, it may take us three months. Who knows. But if you are interested and you think this person is you, please e-mail Reed: reed@singlelock.com. Thank you!
