Hedrick will be based in Seattle and Many in Los Angeles.
Housing agencies AM Only, The Windish Agency and Coda Music, among other partnerships and investments, Paradigm music clients include Coldplay, Dave Matthews Band, Ed Sheeran and Phish, among others.

Said Hedrick and Many in a joint statement: “We’re beyond excited to be joining Paradigm Talent Agency. For many years, we’ve admired the company’s ability to grow quickly while still retaining the highest standards in A&R, client services, and artist development. Paradigm is hands down the best cultural fit for our rosters, and we’re looking forward to contributing to the team.”
“I have considered Trey and Ali friends for many years, and I’m excited to have them join Paradigm,” added Paradigm’s Sam Hunt. “They bring tremendous leadership and integrity, an awesome roster of talent and a broad scope of capabilities.”
