Moutique Agency was conceived the way most great ventures are: through love, stamina, hardship, and adaptation. Had Nadin Brendel loved her bands any less, Moutique would not be the efficient, inspired agency that it is today. It is through the passion for music and the desire to build career bands that Moutique finds its foundation; but it is because of Brendel’s innovative mind and careful hands that Moutique is constantly evolving and adapting to the trials and demands of the music industry.
In 2004, Nadin Brendel founded the booking agency Mikrokulturwith then-partner, Daniel Kempf, with the pure intention of bringing their favorite bands to Europe. Attempting to navigate the European musical landscape was sometimes overwhelming, but through hard work and personal connections to their artists, Mikrokultur managed to thrive and garner a LEA nomination for ‘Talent Development’. Mikrokultur booked the first shows for bands like the Arcade Fire, Death Cab For Cutie, Broken Social Scene, Stars and many more before some of them even had a European release. In fact, Mikrokultur connected quite a few artists with their future European record labels so they could tour Europe. They then grew from simply booking bands in Germany to representing more and more artists all over Europe.
As the scope of business and the artists’ careers grew, Mikrokultur needed to adapt and evolve. After an amicable split of the original partnership in the fall of 2008, Brendel wanted to redesign and revamp Mikrokultur to include more services for her artists. She started to actively pursue a more capable business model, experimenting in different partnerships to fully realize the potential of her agency and artists' goals.
Out of this came the newly dubbed, Moutique Agency. Moutique differs from Mikrokultur because of the breadth and depth of experience in tour booking, management, production, and preproduction. Mikrokultur was a multi-faceted company – often booking tours and then managing the tours to make sure their work did not get undone by incompetent staffing – but Moutique is poised to take those past experiences to the next level. Involving herself in all levels of her artists’ careers has made Nadin Brendel indispensable to her bands. She is always out supporting the Moutique roster, taking photos, making sure that the shows run in a way that benefit both promoter and artist. There is so much attention paid to detail, thanks to Brendel’s passion for good business and the fact that she is, well, German. Germans love their organization and regiments as much as their Bratwurst. And Brendel is unashamed of that love.
MOUTIQUE full-heartedly offers the following services as a one stop agency:
Booking of European Tours
Booking & Promoting Nationals Tours In Germany
In House Tourpublicity & Promotion/Marketing
Tourproduction & Travels
Promoting Local Berlin Shows
In the meantime, read what our artists and colleagues think about us:
"I was so impressed by Nadin Brendel and her company Moutique (…) We worked together all over europe and her and her company became a key player in breaking BSS in Europe. I love and miss touring with her very much." Kevin Drew | Broken Social Scene
"Nadin Brendel has been a part of almost every Broken Social Scene European tour, and was the first person to book us a club date in Europe. She has seen this band through all the highs and lows of a tumultuous career while maintaining consistency when it was most needed: Much love to Nadin Brendel." Brendan Canning | Broken Social Scene
"Peace of mind. Clear communication. Relaxed, personal...ultimately professional. Details." Adam Marvy | Manager Do Make Say Think
"Dearest Nadin. Thank you thank you thank you thank you, for all of your help for those german shows. They were a full success. You were amazing and bands should feel lucky to work with you. The chocolate cake at the end was a brilliant move...such a kind gesture. Thank you for that. I hope to see you again along the way. So until then, be good, be cool, and stay kind. Very kindly." Munaf Rayani | Explosions In The Sky
"I am very happy with your agency and the result in each of our german shows. Vielen Dank. Your agency has a good energy to it. Tchuuus" Howe Gelb | Giant Sand
"Moutique got a high-end reputation arround Europe. They are fast and very professional but still with a human touch. Im a happy to be a part of the sweet rooster they..ve got." Kristoffer Ragnstam
"My name is Tegan Quin. I am in the band Tegan and Sara. We toured with Nadin Brendel in Europe last year and I think it is not an exaggeration to say that it was our best and most fun tour in Europe to date. We have been touring 10 years and it was the first time I felt as if we had someone with us who actually knew how to take care of a band. A good clean shower, dinner and an on time show are the most important things to me while on tour. All of these things were accessible with Nadin on tour with us tour managing. Plus she surprises you with chocolate cake and pizza on hard days where you feel like crying. That is something you can't find in just any tour manager" Tegan Quin | Tegan & Sara
