Our Story
HOLD TIGHT is a multi-faceted music marketing agency specialising in rock, prog & metal that offers print & online PR, radio plugging, strategic planning and digital marketing services. Based out of London, UK we work with some of the most exciting projects from around the globe with a client roster that includes artists, labels, festivals and brands from the UK, USA, Australia, India, mainland Europe, United Arab Emirates and more.
We work with many genres, from rock to electronic, metal to prog and everything in between. The genre isn't important to us, but exceptional music and artistry is. That's why we work for a variety of clients - from major labels and smaller indie labels, right through to unsigned bands. Guided by our vast knowledge and experience of the media and music industries, we deliver creative and effective campaigns on a competitive budget, whether you are an unsigned band looking to build your profile, or an established artist wanting to deliver a solid release campaign. Let us help push your band, festival or brand to the next level!
With over three decades of PR experience, HOLD TIGHT was founded in 2010 by James Monteith and Basick Records owner Nathan Barley Phillips, working alongside freelance PR Lisa Coverdale. With a joint interest in forward thinking music, the three played a key role in building prog/tech/djent and metalcore scenes across Europe, working with bands such as Bury Tomorrow, Fell Silent, Monuments, Born Of Osiris, The Faceless and many more. Lisa officially joined HOLD TIGHT in 2012, bringing her roster of doom, sludge and extreme metal which now includes High on Fire, Ihsahn, Winterfylleth, Abigail Williams, Elder, MØL, Boss Keloid and many more.
Print and online PR Matt Benton joined Basick / HOLD TIGHT in 2014 as an intern after completing a degree in music at Cambridge. He quickly became an invaluable asset, breaking bands such as Conjurer, Our Hollow Our Home, and Ithaca, but also in expanding HOLD TIGHT's remit into more avant-garde territories. Notable artists include Mongolian folk metal pioneers Tengger Cavalry, piano-led pop/prog trio Exploring Birdsong, and chiptune artist Danimal Cannon. Recently Matt has led the charge with new August Burns Red and Elder records, and working with new event Radar Festival, among many others.
