Since Terrorbird's inception in 2006, our first and foremost goal has been to provide fantastic new opportunities and exposure for a select roster of our favorite bands.  Considering that, it was only natural for us to develop sync licensing services.  Specializing in placing music in films, tv shows, advertisements, trailers, and video games, we recruited the amazing Lauren Ross, formerly of Kill Rock Stars fame, to take the reigns and launch this department in Spring of 2009.   With incredible relationships and licensing experience under her belt, an uncanny understanding of the artist perspective, and a reputation for fantastic communication with labels,  Lauren is proactive and creative in seeking out new and exciting opportunities for our licensing roster.

In addition to licensing their album music for use in film, tv, ads, and games, many Terrorbird artists are available for original compositions, covers, on-screen appearances, or whatever other music needs your project may have. Call or email Lauren for more information.
