I am the CEO/founder and owner and manager of Salter Gann Universal Promotions and Management LLC.
I started my own licensed radio station 5 years ago, playing the music of recording artists which I manage and promote, as well as all popular artists.
Salter Gann Universal Promotions and Management LLC “SGU” won “Manager of the Year” at The Josie Awards in 2018 & 2022.
Red Carpet Awards in Europe, I won 2019, 2020, and 2021. I won the “Promotion Company of the Year”, 2022 “Most Trustable Company” of the Year. 2023 I won “Most Appreciated and Trustable Company of the Year.”
For years, I have submitted talented artists, both male and females, to all types of categories and genres. Every year for the past nine years, one or more of the submitted artists have won a category, thus receiving an artist award.
I have been affiliated with several Indie Artists Record Labels over the years.
On September 21, 2021, my partners and I started their own record label. On May 31, 2023 we signed with Sony / Orchard to have the label be distributed world-wide by the Orchard.
