Mentee
Judyth Babin
Manag’Art
After a long gap between accounting and music, Judyth became a production administrator for a jazz club. She then joined the Edmond Bilal Band and became an artist manager/tour manager/production manager/producer.
She then founded her own management structure specializing in jazz: Manag’art.
Utopian to the core, she founded in 2019 the Grain(s) De Riz label which is at the service of artists. Based on the values of mutual aid and sharing, Grain(s) de Riz was born from the Martinique expression “Sé grenn di ri ka fè sac”. Geek and font freak, she can get upset if the graphic charter is not respected.
