Glenn ‘The Drunk Promoter’ Stewart has teamed up with Stevie Williams and Jake Laderman from Melbourne punx Clowns and Jakey Martin from Jem Presents to form the Damaged agency, a new “DIY style” music touring and promotion firm.

Stewart told Hysteria the story behind the formation of the new agency over email.

“Basically we all got drunk and wanted to do something fun like this, and when we sobered up we still really wanted to do it. Jake, Jakey and myself have a roster and Stevie does all the accounts, admin and social media. Together we’re just mates who want to put on rad shows. We’re really proud of our roster, and have many more amazing artists to announce over the coming months!”

Williams says “[We are] working together to book and promote DIY style tours for [our] favourite bands. The company is not exclusive to punk bands only, but the ideology is to nudge our artists in the DIY direction and help them book honest and transparent tours with no music industry smoke, mirrors or mumbo-jumbo. What ever happened to just playing a bunch of shows with your mates anyways?”

Along with Clowns, they already represent garage punks Amyl & The Sniffers, Giallo metallers Pagan, Grim Rhythm, Tankerville, and many others.
