Merging the divisions between global brand, artist booking agency and promotions company, Best Kept Secret strides purposefully and confidently into its fourth year as a unique and truly modern music company. Since foundation in 2002, the booking division has flourished bringing together international legends like Marlena Shaw, Candi Staton, Roy Ayers and Gwen McCrae with hot DJs & producers TM Juke, Kraak & Smaak, Break Reform, Yam Who? and next big thing live acts like Fertile Ground, Heavy and Jazztronik. The 2004 addition of a media/PR side to the enterprise has gone from strength to strength, working on in demand releases from Elmore Judd, Beatfanatic, Kid Sublime, Domu, The Baker Brothers and Colonel Red amongst others. Spreading their wings further and becoming truly international, Best Kept Secret has opened offices and club residencies in Chicago and Cape Town - taking the good word further and bringing the worldwide family that little bit closer together. The ultimate aim? - To unite, under one happy roof, a one stop music shop that acts as a record label, promotions and marketing company, events and artist representation as well being the front line in bringing the best in independent and forward thinking music fast and fresh to music lovers across the globe.
