Groove Guild, Founder & Head of Music Supervision

Dave Roberge�s career in the music industry began when he launched Everfine Artist Management and Everfine Records to support the career of then emerging recording & touring artist O.A.R. In 2001, Everfine Records signed a Distribution Agreement with ADA releasing three albums under the deal. That relationship led Everfine into entering a strategic label partnership with Lava/Atlantic Records in 2003. This venture allowed Everfine Records to maintain its independent spirit while gaining access to greater resources in order to reach a broader audience. Everfine released 3 albums independently and supported the release of 4 albums on Everfine/Lava/Atlantic Records between 2003 and 2012 all debuting on the Billboard Sales Charts. During this time, Roberge and his team developed, produced and promoted �The Feeling Better than Everfine� Music Festival in 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006 which showcased developing & emerging artists. In 2005, Roberge took his management roster to Red Light Management, but continued to operate Everfine Records independently. At the beginning of 2013, Roberge joined 251 Management, a full-service management company representing music artists, songwriters, tour properties and television personalities. After spending 3 years at 251 Management, Dave joined the music industry startup world where he oversaw Sales & Industry Relations at Feature.fm. Dave is currently the SVP, Label Development at Ingrooves Music Group where he is responsible for overseeing the Global Label Development & Music Support Teams. Ingrooves Music Group is a leader in independent music distribution and marketing providing independent labels, established artists and other content owners with the most transparent and scalable distribution tools and technology services including analytics, rights management services, and strategic marketing solutions to maximize engagement and consumption in today�s dynamic global marketplace.
