DELRAY BEACH, FL -- Delray’s popularity as one of the premiere destinations of the country, is now experiencing growing attention from several different industries with the intention of relocation. The bustling nightlife, world-class restaurants, and pristine beaches require very little deliberation as to whether a business owner should relocate or not. This increasing commerce is slowly becoming known to locals, and there are some new businesses emerging that would probably take some by surprise. Among these new comers is a well-seasoned music industry professional who grew tired of the New York City weather and longed for a change of climate for his already successful business.
Jason Davis, founder of One One 7, a global entertainment industry corporation, came to visit Delray Beach on the recommendation of a close friend and instantly became enamored with all that the “little” village by the sea had to offer. “My wife and I had lunch at Deck 84 and I was transfixed by the Intracoastal and all the boats going through the Atlantic Avenue Bridge. It reminded me of my years in Los Angeles, and it was then that we decided this is where we were going to live.”
Through the ability to travel to different office locations and “work remotely,” Mr. Davis uprooted his 16 year old company and has continued his work in the beautiful paradise he is now fortunate enough to call home. His company One One 7 is primarily focused on building proper teams around established and emerging artists to ensure their success in today's popular music world. Davis himself is an award winning songwriter and author and the team he represents are the recipients of several Grammys and ASCAP awards. He has worked with a who's who list of the biggest artists in the world including a four-year run as the Senior Vice President of Dolly Parton's management company out of Nashville, TN. He has direct relationships and represents current songwriters and producers that have helped create the careers and written some of the bigger hits for artists like Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Justin Timberlake, Lady Antebellum, Arianna Grande, Francesca Battistelli and many others.
The significance of One One 7 being located here in Delray Beach is that artists are sent to Atlantic Avenue from the biggest Record Labels in the U.S. for Jason's expertise in developing talent. Companies like Sony Music, Warner Music, Atlantic Records, RCA Records, Capitol Records and casting producers of the biggest television networks like ABC and NBC are all referring talent from all over the world. This talent has traveled to Delray Beach from London, Dubai, Canada, South Africa, Australia, and all over the U.S., directly putting Delray Beach on the map for the Music Industry field.
One One 7 prides itself as being a leader in this field and its team members come from all walks of business success to back it up and thanks to its new home of Delray Beach, don't be surprised if the next big star is eating along side of you at your favorite Avenue restaurant.
