Todd Porter has been working in advertising for the past 20 years. A dedicated fan of the live music experience, he sees over 200 bands a year. He's placed many of his favorite artists in commercials and also produced a few campaigns for the Super Bowl. He’s partnered with his clients to create music content, working to place music in the Crash the Super Bowl campaigns and booking artists for the Doritos stages at SXSW and E3. (Yes, he has many stories.)

His work for clients at the agency has resulted in a higher profile for brands and appreciation among music-minded consumers and sales in the millions for artists. He’s launching acts into the charts and helped them become commercially successful while also helping brands.
