Manager and
bon vivant Bruce Kalmick is busting out the premium bourbon to cheer the launch of his new company,
WHY&HOW. The music and management outfit promises ventures that variously blend entertainment, digital, branding and spirits. The latter tends toward cask strength, so we’ll take those keys now.
The W&H roster includes
KALEO,
Belle Mt.,
BRELAND,
Chase Rice,
SRPN (
Samantha Ronson &
Pete Nappi),
Whiskey Myers and more. Three managers with whom Kalmick worked at
Triple 8 are joining him at the new firm:
Kelly Kresen,
Rachel Cave and
Eddie Kloesel. The company has also onboarded a number of other Triple alumni and a handful of new hires, which is music to our ears in these challenging times.
Look for more big announcements from WHY&HOW in coming weeks and months. In the meantime, Bruce, our glass is looking kinda empty.
