Kimberly Tanikromo is a music industry professional with over a decade of experience spanning events, publishing, label development and artist management. After early roles at Headfirst Music, being at the forefront of San Holo’s forward-thinking label bitbird, and later as Head of Creative at Next Era Publishing, she continued to build and shape platforms for talent across different corners of the industry. From 2021 to 2024 she ran Cruise Control Studios, setting up its publishing arm and label. During this time, she also started her own venture focusing on artist and project management.
Her sweet spot sits between creative music business and DJ culture, with a proven track record in building international careers and developing independent ecosystems that last.
