Owner
Starfish Entertainment Inc.
(Music industry)
1993 — Present (16 years)
One fluke meeting on an airplane, a subsequent job offer at a management company and Susan de Cartier was hooked on the music industry. After moving from NYC to Toronto, Susan launched Starfish Entertainment in 1993 and became Blue Rodeo's manager. Under Susan's direct guidance, Blue Rodeo has gone on to become one of the most successful bands in Canadian history, selling over four million albums worldwide to date.
In 2000, Jude Coombe joined Starfish as a manager and Danielle Emmrich joined the fold in 2002. In addition to running special projects and day to day operations for Starfish, Danielle runs our affiliated studio, The Woodshed.
The Sadies joined the roster in the spring of 2006 alongside Blue Rodeo, The Jim Cuddy Band, Greg Keelor, Oh Susanna, Erin McKeown (Canada) and The Swallows.
Throughout our history, Starfish Entertainment has been directly involved in the creation and release of 24 albums.
