Indie promoter Danny Wimmer Presents has acquired Billy Alan Productions, a booking agency specializing in Native American casinos.
The acquisition, which has been rebranded as Billy Alan 2, will be led by 40-year industry vet Billy Brill. Brill currently represents casinos in California, Oregon and Mississippi. The company has booked a wide range of Native American bands as well as headliners like Duran Duran, Ringo Starr, Chicago, ZZ Top and Snoop Dogg.
“I love being the advocate and talent buyer for Native Americans casinos,” said Brill. “With DWP’s resources [we can] offer better ticket prices and bring in a wider audience.”
Danny Hayes, CEO of Danny Wimmer Presents, added, “Native American properties are becoming a larger part of every artist's routing and we love the business that Billy has built.”
