Our Origin

The original concept for The Artist Evolution began as a passion project for founder Derek Champagne in Hollywood California in 2005. As a serial entrepreneur and seasoned performer in the L.A. music scene, Derek saw first-hand the major changes in the music industry that created a world-wide impact as a result of the new digital age. As the industry changed, Derek wanted to help artists to pivot so that they would thrive with new solutions for revenue with support from growing companies and sponsors.

In 2007, The Artist Evolution (TAE) took root with HQ in Northwest AR, Derek’s hometown, and quickly evolved into a quality agency with a focus on helping emerging and growing companies to develop their brands and marketing campaigns. With previous experience in the media and agency environment, Derek had a clear vision for a different kind of agency – an “anti-agency” to better serve clients with optimal results.

Today, The Artist Evolution is an award-winning strategic marketing firm with an 18-year track record, excellent reputation with awards and recognition for best in design / marketing / advertising and innovation, and a solid portfolio of clients. TAE creates and implements strategic marketing campaigns for growing and emerging companies, from startups to household brands.

We take pride in our core values, are focused on culture and team development, and are committed to being THE aspirational agency providing solutions with rock star strategic marketing campaigns and hands-on execution support.

Execution

We believe that great strategy must be followed by proper implementation and consistent execution. TAE helps clients with the “heavy lifting” of campaigns to ensure success.
