Drive Music may be less than a year old, but that isn’t stopping it’s success. As an independent publishing and record company, Drive is in constant pursuit of new talent and progressive avenues of development. Collectively holding the likes of John Mayer, Dave Matthews Band, Jonas Brothers, Zac Brown Band and more under their belts, founders and long time private client of The Village, John Alagia along with Nolan Sipe are dedicated to finding and nurturing up-and-coming artists.
Forbes had a chance to chat with Alagia, Sipes and up-and-coming singer/songwriter, Sinclair, while at The Village recently. More HERE
