OTMG is proud to announce our newest client Blue Note Records, who have been at the forefront of jazz music since the late 1930s. Blue Note Records has aimed to uphold that distinction over the nearly 70 years since its first recording session. Founded as a small independent label, Blue Note has gone onto become the premiere jazz label in the world, and also the longest running.

Our first campaign is Aaron Parks, whose Blue Note debut Invisible Cinema will be released August 19th. As an up and coming Jazz pianist with a fresh take on the genre, Parks blends his contemporary musical influences with an authentic piano Jazz sound.
