About Us

MBM started life as Music Business Management way back in early 1993. Phil Barrett had been a successful international musician and record-producer, his wife Anne owned a couple of happening wine bars and restaurants.

Anne & Phil's joint understanding of 'the business' makes the company what it is today... a successful, busy entertainment agency / consultancy coupled with an artiste management business.

Now part of Barrett Entertainment Group Limited, the company now has over 30,000 artistes on their national database, covering over 60 different types of entertainment... books over 8,000 events anually in over ten different countries... and still finds the time to be thoroughly nice and 100% committed, professional people!

We provide legal contracts for every event... All of our artistes have excellent publicity... We supply posters for every event, 100% free of charge... We accept all major debit/credit cards... We guarantee to help you to find the right entertainment at the right price.

Anne Barrett has recently stepped down as Chairman of the Agents' Association of Great Britain (Northwest Branch) following a succesful two-year tenure.
