CTRL5

CTRL5 is a first-of-its-kind creative agency for artists. We work with musicians the same way creative agencies have traditionally worked with brands. We create visual identities for artists and develop award-winning content around them, using the same ideation and design processes found at agencies like Anomaly. Simply put, we've taken the agency of record model that brands have used to develop some of their most creative work -- think Apple and Media Arts Lab -- and applied it to artists for the first time. We start by helping artists develop a creative foundation, then we build a world around it through music videos, album art, social media and beyond during album campaigns. We don’t just develop creative, but also strategy, marketing and partnerships. We've worked with artists like Bob Moses, ZHU, Rema, SOFI TUKKER and A R I Z O N A, as well as labels like Warner Music, Epic Records and Domino Records. Through that process we've pioneered, we've won 20+ major awards for our work at the Webby Awards, Clio Awards, Telly Awards and SXSW. Plus, for the past five years, we've also given every artist we've worked with their most successful music video of all time. We not only create art for artists, but the brands that support them too. We've worked with Apple Music, Google, Sofar Sounds, Visa, Ford and Jameson.
