Blue Raincoat Artists, the artist management division of Blue Raincoat Music, has announced the addition of acclaimed singer/songwriter Weyes Blood to its global roster.

LA based Weyes Blood, aka Natalie Mering, has been active since the mid-2000’s. Her critically acclaimed album “Front Row Seat to Earth” was released on Mexican Summer in 2016 before she subsequently signed to Sub Pop in 2017, where she received two prestigious Libera Awards: Best Indie Rock Album (2020) for her international breakout release Titanic Rising and Best Singer-Songwriter Album (2023) for her current album And in the Darkness, Hearts Aglow. She has released five albums to date.

And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow has earned Weyes Blood praise from outlets across the globe, including album of the year honours from SPIN and Sunday Times Culture, and earning placement on over 50 “Best of 2022” albums and singles lists. She was also named at number 5 on the Sunday Times Culture’s “20 Best Singers of This Century” and sold out recent tours of North America and Europe, which included headline appearances at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles and The Hammersmith Eventim in London.

Weyes Blood will be represented worldwide by Ed Harris, who also manages Cigarettes After Sex, Miss Grit and Katrina Ford. Ed is based in Blue Raincoat’s New York office and said, “I first saw Natalie performing live as Weyes Blood back in 2011, long before I became a full time artist manager. I was captivated by her then and have followed her trajectory ever since. She is an amazing and unique artist who consistently produces incredible work. It is a privilege to be working with her.”

Blue Raincoat Music, which is part of the Reservoir group of companies, launched in 2014 as a standalone artist management company and quickly expanded into music publishing and label activities. Blue Raincoat Artists now represents an expanding and diverse roster, which includes Arlo Parks, Ezra Collective, Phoebe Bridgers, Skunk Anansie, Nova Twins and more.

Jeremy Lascelles Co-Founder & CEO of Blue Raincoat Music said, “It is kind of a dream ticket for us to become Natalie's management team. Ed, with his skill, sensitivities and global experience feels like a perfect fit. Like many people I have been entranced and mesmerised by the beauty of her records and her live performances. She is so revered and admired by her peers, that it is truly an honour that she has trusted Ed and the Blue Raincoat team to guide her into and through the next exciting period of her career.”
