SPLOTHER in Action

"We were on a really tight deadline, so we headed over to Splother website and found this amazing singer/songwriter that was perfect for our commercial.
Our band joined Splother, and Brand Z sponsored us during our tour of Australia - we all wore Brand Z shoes at Easterfest when we played for 50,000 crazy Ozzies!"

Steve Toland

Steve likes to keep things simple. As a 21-year veteran of Music Publishing, Steve brings a wealth of experience and practical know-how to the Splother table. Having cut his teeth with a renowned independent publisher, at a time when "independent" meant having to scratch and claw for every break, Steve was taught to recognize and seize opportunities. Simplifying and streamlining systems was his way to stay ahead of the competition. So when former co-worker Dave Durocher brought up the idea of starting an online A&R company aimed at independent and emerging artists, featuring speed to market and quick turnaround licensing, his decision was simple... Steve was bringing his talents to Splother.
