Music agent Jbeau Lewis has joined United Talent Agency.

At the agency’s music department, Lewis will work closely alongside music head Rob Prinz to expand the agency’s music touring practice.

“I’m energized by the opportunity to help grow an innovative music-touring division,” Lewis said . “UTA is uniquely progressive in leveraging technology on behalf of its clients, and I’m particularly excited to tap that expertise at a company where every artist will reap the benefits of a full-service agency.”
