Acclaimed indie-folk singer-songwriter Noah Gundersen has officially signed with International Talent Booking (ITB) for worldwide live touring representation across all territories outside North America. Senior agent Steve Zapp will manage Gundersen’s international concert calendar, festival bookings, and headline tours.
Gundersen maintains his existing live representation in the United States and Canada with Sound Talent Group (STG). His overarching career management remains under the direction of longtime manager Yvette Uhlmann.
Based in London, ITB represents an established roster of legacy rock and acoustic icons, including Lenny Kravitz, Bob Dylan, and Paul Simon. The agency continues to expand its contemporary roster, recently signing acts such as Initiate and The Youth Play.
Splitting live representation between regional agencies has become a common strategy in 2026. For example, indie duo Zoë’s Brothers signed with ROAM to oversee their international touring while keeping their North American options open.
Similarly, Dutch electronic pioneer SPEEDY J signed with Liminal to handle live bookings across the Americas while maintaining separate representation in Europe. In contrast, blues-rock guitarist Ana Popovic signed with The Kurland Agency to consolidate her live touring under one worldwide agency.
The ITB deal comes amid an active year for Gundersen. In May 2026, he released his seventh studio album, Rites of Spring, featuring tracks like “Driving With My Eyes Closed, Heaven,” “Signs & Wonders,” and “You & Me”.
Gundersen supported the release with North American headline dates and is set to launch a nationwide autumn tour in October 2026, playing venues like Le Poisson Rouge in New York and Lincoln Hall in Chicago.
Takeaways
Splitting global touring duties between Sound Talent Group and International Talent Booking allows Noah Gundersen to balance domestic intimacy with broader international scale.
Independent acoustic and folk artists often encounter different booking patterns abroad, where European and UK audiences rely heavily on seasonal festival circuits and heritage performing arts spaces.
Working with Steve Zapp at ITB gives Gundersen direct access to seasoned overseas promoters who specialize in building multi-territory routes.
Rather than expecting a single domestic agency to manage international logistics across multiple time zones, this bifurcated agency setup ensures focused regional strategies for each continent.
Will ITB target Gundersen for major European folk and roots festivals during the summer 2027 season? Could ITB’s deep rock and acoustic roster lead to international co-headlining packages alongside other veteran singer-songwriters?
