Linda Gommers (NL)

Speaker (Bad Manor Records)

Linda Gommers has been working at the heart of the Dutch music industry for nearly two decades, operating across A&R, artist development, publishing, label management, music strategy and creative development.

She began her career at Q-dance / ID&T, where she worked her way up to Music Manager, overseeing the company’s broader music strategy. During this period, she worked across artists, releases and forward-thinking music concepts, including one of the first major crossovers between Dutch hip-hop and hardstyle with The Opposites.

In 2013, Linda founded BAD MANOR, an independent label and creative hub bringing together A&R, publishing, artist development and strategy. She also spent several years overseeing Roq ’N Rolla and Nouveau Riche as Label Manager.

Between 2019 and 2021, Linda joined SPEC Management, where she represented artists including Famke Louise and producer $hirak. Her work with Famke included the creative development and production of her sold-out headline show at Amsterdam’s iconic Paradiso.

Linda also managed The Boy Next Door for nearly a decade, contributing to international successes including ‘La Colegiala’ and the platinum hit ‘Whenever’ with Kris Kross Amsterdam and Conor Maynard.

Today, through BAD MANOR, Linda works with artists including Hans Glock, DAVINØ and LARSTIG & GASDROP. Her role extends far beyond traditional label or artist management, spanning repertoire and A&R, publishing, positioning, partnerships, branding and live concepts.

She is currently working with Famke Louise, on of Netherlands biggest pop icon, again on the next chapter of her career, including two major anniversary shows at AFAS Live in January 2027.

The common thread throughout Linda’s career is her ability to recognize potential and connect artists, music and creative worlds that might not seem like an obvious match. Her focus is not simply on building releases, but on building artists, brands and projects with long-term impact.
