DAVID ELLEFSON’s EMP Label Group Joins Forces With Alpha Omega Management

Alpha Omega Management has joined forces with EMP Label Group, creating a new sub-label for upcoming artists. In addition, EMP founder David Ellefson (Megadeth) and EMP operations manager Thom Hazaert enter Alpha Omega Management to form a global partnership for management and booking.

Alpha Omega Management has issued the following statement:

“How to put in words the huge honor and joy to enter in this two-way partnership with Ellefson Music Productions and its two Gentlemen, David and Thom? Since our very first contacts and conversations we found out easily the mutual understanding about the way we want to collaborate for the future projects and how to bring them forward to the global music business! The common tone was right there, clear and harmonious for the both parties, following the new idea of the band managing which Alpha Omega has as the leading principle since its founding. The team’s hard work has brought fruitful results in a short time, confirming the fact that the chosen road is right. With this collaboration with David and Thom, and with new projects which are already in the works, we’re looking forward to very interesting and busy times, in many areas, to give a new meaning and global target for so many great bands out there! So stay connected for next announcements, soon!”

Hazaert: “Since I met Alex and the team at Alpha Omega, we had an instant connection. They have an amazing roster and infrastructure, and we immediately thought there could be a synergy between our operations. With their massive Worldwide support structure, together we will be able to create an amazing management experience for EMP artists, and beyond. Building and expanding the ‘EMPire’, and growing our operations as a global brand is a high priority for myself and David, and we saw a great opportunity with Alpha Omega to create a highly charged artist experience with Worldwide reach.”

David Ellefson’s video statement with Alex Azzali and Roberto Risso below:

David Ellefson’s EMP Label Group recently announced the latest addition to their growing roster, female fronted Los Angeles hard rock band Hail Sagan.

Hail Sagan features powerhouse vocalist Sagan Amery, with a devilish masked group rumored to include guitarists Nick Quijano (Powerman 5000) and Andrew Weissberg.

The band has just released their debut video “Dark Cloud”, which can be seen below. The track, and video, which deals with the subject of abuse and bullying, has already resonated strongly with fans. Amery says ‘ It’s been a great experience being able to broach the subject of bullying and abuse with the lyrics of this song. We took it one step further and created a video with director Matthew Crum and DP Kenny Keeler that visually enhanced the sensitive subject matter. We chose to mask the members of the band in an effort to show the world that anyone can be a part of this, you never know who will be under there, maybe even a fan or someone who needs music to save them.”

The band will release their self-titled debut EP in Fall 2016 on EMP Label Group, and will be available for pre-order later this month.
