Linda Perry, Custard Records
Before we signed to Atlantic we were pretty weary of record deals, executives etc., until we met Mary. She stood out as a strong-willed and hard-working woman in a record industry filled with weirdos our band did NOT relate to, and we finally felt like "Here's someone who gets it, will work night and day for it, and believes in the music and artists she takes on.". That's exactly how our band works, and we were sold on Mary the second we felt that bottom line connection.

As an unsigned artist, Mary helped me navigate the treacherous waters of the music industry. Introducing me to the right people, accompanying me to meetings with labels. Having her by my side brought me instant credibility and suddenly I had access to a lot of people that previously wouldn't even return my phone calls. As I learned soon enough, it's all about connections in this business and everybody knows Mary. Because of her track record, they know that she's got the goods, and when she takes an artist under her wing, they listen...

After working with Mary on my first major label record, I can truly say she's like family; like a sister I can confide in, a popular cousin who always knows the right connection to make it happen, and a spunky, tough aunt who will stand up for me artistically when I really need it. Mary is extremely sensitive to her artist's specific needs and is great at picking out the right team - whether it's a manager, lawyer, or PR - to help them develop and shine, no matter what type of project.

Mary Gormley has been a trusted friend and ally for many years. Her interest in The Darkness as far back as 2002 was a major catalyst in the band's industry breakthrough. She has shown nothing but unflinching dedication and loyalty to us ever since. How many people in the music trade can you say that about?
