JENNIFER PHELPS

Director, artist success
With deep roots across five record labels (from indie boutiques to major labels including the BMG & Sony joint venture), Jennifer has guided artists from their first chart entry to Grammy stages and Academy Award wins. She’s built the kind of relationships with artists, managers, labels, and publishers that only come from genuinely caring about the music — and the people who make it.
Now, as a driving force behind Music Daily and its artist Collective, Jennifer brings that same firepower to independent and emerging artists. She’s not just opening doors — she’s building new ones.
Her career spans music, film, television, and advertising, with licensing and casting credits for HBO, MTV, NFL Films, MLB.  If you’re ready to be heard,  Jennifer is ready to make it happen.

founder & ceo

For more than three decades, I’ve worked at the intersection of music, media, technology, and brand partnerships.

I’ve helped build digital media businesses, created branded entertainment programs, produced livestream events, and worked with artists, labels, broadcasters, and global brands throughout the evolution of the music industry.

Signl, is a platform designed for the next generation of artist marketing.

Independent artists have audiences but often lack the infrastructure to organize fans, activate sponsors, measure campaigns, and build lasting direct relationships. Brands, meanwhile, struggle to efficiently work with dozens of emerging artists while maintaining consistent reporting and execution.

Signl bridges that gap.

“The Dark Side of the Moon cover intrigued me when I  bought it in April 1973.  I was 19 at the time and Pink Floyd was becoming a mainstream success with a growing fan base, myself included.  The mind-blowing music coupled with lyrics exploring themes of alienation, loss, and materialism struck a personal note which echoes within me to this day.”   MA
