If you are the kind of musician who wants to spend your life creating your music. If you are someone who wants to make a career of your craft, then read on. You may just put our Team to work.
We believe in artists who bust their chops until 4 am to get that song just right. We believe in the songwriters and craftspeople who are so driven and determined that they will do whatever they have to in order to live or die by their craft. We honor those who are so fiercely independent that they know no other way than doing it all DIY.
We do all of this because we believe simply that music changes the world. Craftspeople change the world. If your craft is what you do, let us help you share it with everyone.
For any artist, no matter how “big” or small, that’s what we do. We do PR.
Would these artists hire our team if they too didn’t believe that?
From clients as widely known as Norah Jones, Sigur Ros, Shovels And Rope, and REM, to established indie artists and labels such as Sufjan Stevens’ Asthmatic Kitty Records, Mute Records, and Dead Oceans, to self-released artists like Cheers Elephant, Curse Of Lono, or Kristoffer And The Harbourheads our goal is simple: get them maximum exposure, period.
With publicists worldwide and led by veteran industry pros Nelson Wells Bill Benson we do this with seasoned know-how and our own fiercely independent passion.
See our many satisfied clients, and see how our track record speaks for itself.

NELSON WELLS in BUSINESS

(For more business details see Nelson Wells on Brandyourself.com)
<a href="http://nelsonwells.brandyourself.com" rel="nofollow">nelsonwells.brandyourself.com</a>
Currently you may find Wells filling any one of the following roles: Logistics and marketing director and Angel investor at FourAthens the newest technology incubator in the Southern US, as President and CEO of indie music PR Firm #TEAMClermont, speaking about PR and music marketing on conferences like SXSW and CMJ, or surfing different waves worldwide.
As CEO of Team Clermont Wells lead the team through it's first 18 years tripling its valuation in a niche market in less than the first three years. Team Clermont has since quickly become North America's premier boutique Music PR Firm specializing in National Publicity campaigns, independent Radio marketing, and film and TV sync licensing promotion. Nelson began Team Clermont in 1997 as the independent radio promotion division of his PR firm, Wells and McLean, inc. with partner Jimmy McLean, artist manager for such acts as Jason and The Scorchers, Five-Eight, and Allgood.
In 2001, Wells expanded the company to incorporate a full service traditional media department and an online media department. In 2004 Wells and team were the first Music PR company to officially service a full list of music blogs with their clients' recordings to great success.
Now nearly 20 years of successful music PR campaigns has catapulted Team Clermont to the top of their field. Clients include Warner Bros. Records, Mute Records, Astralwerks, Domino, R.E.M., Asthmatic Kitty, Merge Records, SubPop, and more.
In 2002 Wells formed a property investment company for developing, restoring, and marketing renewable, green, coastal and historic properties in Savannah, Tybee Island, GA, Daufuskie Island, SC, and Athens, Georgia. He has since sold the majority of shares in this company and is focussing his time and efforts as CEO of Team Clermont, and on funding and advising small startup software ventures, surfing waves, crafting handy inventions that may change the world or may only improve his kitchen technique, and taking care of his twin daughters.
Previous to founding Team Clermont, Nelson honed his entrepreneurial and PR skills and took his first music PR company from an initial investment of $800 from a band whose name includes 'Blowfish' to a half million in revenues in 30 months.
That PR Firm is now Team Clermont.
Prior to doing radio promotion or to starting Team Clermont Nelson attended the University of Georgia where he pursued a degree in marketing and international business. He was also a member of the varsity diving team; since college, he's moved his athletic pursuits out of the pool and to both the road and the water currently training for one more triathlon, and one more half marathon.
"In addition to my passion for races and surfing, I pursue my passion for technology and business through advising and mentoring young tech start-up companies by way of the newest technology incubator, Four Athens. I express my creative side and #entrepreneurial spirit by #designing and #prototyping my own #inventions." (Nelson Wells on instagram)
