White Sky Charts a New Path with BlueRock

We have some big news to share! After more than 20 years of supporting the Australian music industry, White Sky has been acquired by BlueRock, an award-winning, certified B-Corp, multidisciplinary advisory firm based in the Melbourne CBD.  

This is exciting for everyone involved with White Sky. Our team, our clients, our partners and the whole Australian music and entertainment industry will benefit from our elevated service offering, growth opportunities, extra resources and new ways of working. And the best bit? Very little will change in how we work together with our clients and community.

Same White Sky, Bigger Stage

Since our founding in 2002, our mission at White Sky has been clear: we’re passionate about helping musicians, managers, festivals, and record labels do what they do best, by providing specialised business and financial services.  

With BlueRock now part of our journey, we have the opportunity to offer a wider range of services to better support your needs. The major difference you’ll see is the added financial services we can now provide, including tax advisory, insurance, financing, and private wealth advisory. All under one roof.

As more Australian artists and music businesses operate globally, navigating international tax complexities is crucial. Leveraging BlueRock’s expertise, we can now offer tailored strategies to manage your global finances more effectively.

This Band Is NOT Breaking Up

The commitment of my fellow partners, John Atkins, Matt Bird, Mike Landers, Kavisha Kuruk, and Dean Hampson remains unwavering. We’re still the same team, in the same roles, with the same dedication to excellence. Our brand, our identity, and the way we communicate with clients are all staying the same.

One big change is that we say goodbye to our Collingwood office, with the team relocating to BlueRock’s HQ in the Rialto building at 525 Collins St, Melbourne. It’s a really fun space, so make sure you visit! In Sydney, our office continues to operate as it always has.

Singing From the Same Sheet

BlueRock shares our values and our passion for supporting creators, innovators, and entrepreneurs. They also bring a wealth of experience that will be an incredible asset to our clients and industry.

Far from your average accounting, tax and wealth firm, BlueRock is a disruptive business that has always done things differently since their founding in 2008. They were one of the first professional services firms in Australia to become a B Corp. They have their own charitable foundation to support the causes they care about.  

BlueRock consistently ranks in AFR Top 100 Lists. They’re a certified Great Place to Work™. They’ve won a swag of national awards on a business and individual level, including 2023 Fast-Growing Firm of the Year and 2024 Holistic Financial Advisor of the Year.
