ARTIST MANAGEMENT AND CONSULTANCY.

NWN was founded by Southampton’s very own Alan Fitzpatrick. It goes without saying, that Alan needs no introduction when it comes to Electronic music. Alan is one of the worlds leading artists, and has a wealth of experience in the industry from performance, label management and of course artist management.

In 2024, Alan merged NWN with Frances Barber Shillito, former founder of FRNT MGMT.

Frances is a well respected figure in the realm of artist management, renowned for her passion for dance music and profound dedication to nurturing talent. With a wealth of experience and a keen eye for emerging artists, Frances has left an indelible mark on the industry landscape.

Frances propelled the agency to the forefront of the electronic scene by being the first female founded agency on the market, curating a roster of underground artists and orchestrating their ascent to prominence. Her innate ability to recognise potential, coupled with her strategic insight, has cemented her reputation in the field.

As she embarks on the next chapter of her journey with NWN, Frances remains steadfast in her mission to empower artists and elevate their voices on a global scale.'
