We work best when there’s trust, shared vision and time to build something properly. That’s why we keep things close, collaborative and rooted in long-term thinking.
Most of our work starts with a conversation, not a sales pitch. We don’t work with everyone, and we’re not supposed to. But if the music’s undeniable and the intent is real, there’s a good chance we’ll want to talk.
"I found Polite Riot when they crawled out of my corner of the music blogging internet one day. They are awesome - they do what they say they will do without any big words or jargon and deliver the results they promise. I actually have an online following now! Feels like having a friend in your corner of the industry!"
Gina Davis
"Working with Polite Riot is a delight. There are so many agencies promising you unrealistic things and charging a fortune for literally doing nothing. So it's good to know which ones are the ones doing serious and honest work. Polite Riot is one of those."
Arrows of Silk
"I don't know what to say, except wow and thank you."
