Yes, absolutely. New York managers regularly work with artists from across the United States and internationally. While some focus on artists who can play local venues regularly, many are open to managing talent remotely, especially in genres like electronic, hip-hop, and indie pop.

New York's manager scene reflects the city's incredible diversity: hip-hop, indie rock, electronic, jazz, punk, R&B, and experimental music all thrive here. The city's history runs from the Velvet Underground to Jay-Z, and today's managers work across that entire spectrum. Some focus on specific niches like the Brooklyn indie scene, while others specialize in urban music or electronic acts. Many managers are drawn to hybrid sounds that reflect New York's multicultural energy.

On Groover, managers have 7 days to respond to your submission. If they don't reply within that timeframe, you get your credits back, guaranteeing you won't waste time waiting.

A manager guides your career strategy, connects you with booking agents, labels, and industry contacts, and helps you navigate business decisions. In New York, managers often have deep connections to local venues like Elsewhere, media outlets, and the broader music industry ecosystem. They focus on long-term artist development, not just distribution, and can open doors that are hard to access on your own.
