big fish booking company

Kristina Priceman and Christopher weller

Big Fish Booking Company is an artist-run boutique agency based in Chicago that specializes in booking and artist management. Owners Chris Weller and Tina Priceman started booking shows for themselves and some of their close friends under the guise of Big Fish in 2016 in an effort to better support their own musical endeavors. The hard work and “fake it till you make it” attitude slowly paid off as new artists were signed and the Big Fish network expanded. Big Fish Booking Company has grown into an international agency supporting the careers of many world renowned artists, including (but not limited to) The Bad Plus, Nate Smith, Makaya McCraven, Kurt Elling and Melanie Charles. Big Fish prides itself on having a well-rounded approach to supporting musicians, as they understand first-hand the sacrifice and hard work it takes to build a touring career. Less than 10 years in, Big Fish has no intention of slowing down.
