“We are honored to have Matt, Mike and Rachel join the team here at CAA. Many of us have worked with Matt for almost 20 years, beginning from his early days at the Kenmore Agency,” said CAA Co-Head of Contemporary Music Darryl Eaton. “We’ve always been impressed by his vision, his eye for identifying emerging artists and his deep passion for the talented musicians he represents. His senior leadership will be a welcome addition to the agency. Our entire group is excited and energized by Matt, Rachel and Mike joining us to collaborate and further build out our incredible music department.”
