Tommy Alexander is a music agent at Wasserman based in Nashville TN. His roster includes but is not limited to; Taj Mahal, Brandy Clark, The Milk Carton Kids, Willi Carlisle, Vincent Neil Emerson, Todd Snider, Olive Klug, Humbird, and Theo Lawrence.
In 2015 something undeniable was pulling the 31-year old DIY musician, self-made entrepreneur, and college dropout to the Pacific Northwest, where he quickly become a core part of their close knit songwriting community. While continuing to refine his own songwriting and performing skills, Alexander would go on to found Pilot Light Booking, which initially focused on that very community, but soon expanded to nearly 50 artists nationwide. As he began to delve into the art of tour booking, Alexander cold called one of his favorite venues and was soon the talent buyer at Bunk Bar. With little to no experience booking a dense concert schedule, Alexander dove in. His plan was simple: offer Bunk Bar to the community as a home for local showcases and touring bands alike. Bunk’s concert schedule thrived, on average hosting more than 20 shows a month.
With the pandemic putting an end to his days as a talent buyer, Alexander moved to Nashville in April of 2021. As touring slowly was coming back, the self-taught booking agent would go on to book more than 800 shows between April 2021 and April 2022, while responsible for a national touring roster of 25 artists. In April of 2022, Alexander was offered a job at Wasserman Nashville, one of the most respected music booking teams in the world.
