Eric Karsenty is a music obsessed marketer with 20 years’ music industry experience.

He has delivered successful global marketing campaigns and partnerships for multinationals in music such as Warner Music, Ubiquity Records, Apple Music, Yamaha and Sonos.

In 2016, Eric founded Bridge The Gap, an artist management and label services company.

Bridge The Gap helps independent musicians release their music with a clear understanding of the market and their audiences, giving them the tools to tell their story efficiently to as many people as possible.

They get the music heard, convey the story well and build compelling marketing plans leveraging own, earned and paid media via all the channels at the artists’ disposal.

Eric's role is to guide artists through every step of the way from A&R to playlist pitching, though to PR, content creation and campaign management, allowing them to be as creative in the way you promote your music as they re making and producing it.

Main artists I’m working with drummer Richard Spaven, Jordan Rakei, Myele Manzanza, Rosie Frater-Taylor and PYJAEN.
