Agent Alex Hardee, EVP &amp; Managing Executive at the agency, will oversee the partnership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Formed in 1988, Massive Attack are widely credited with pioneering the trip-hop genre. Their debut <em>Blue Lines<\/em> (1991) and landmark album <em>Mezzanine<\/em> (1998) both appear on Rolling Stone&#8217;s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The group has sold over 13 million albums worldwide, earned a Brit Award for Best British Dance Act, two MTV Europe Music Awards, and an Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Contribution to British Music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The duo returned to the live stage in June 2024 after a multi-year absence, playing festivals across Europe including LIDO Festival and Pohoda Festival through summer 2025, and closing the year with South American dates in Colombia and Brazil. They have an upcoming 2026 date booked at The Star Theatre in Singapore this July.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The signing keeps their existing team fully intact: UTA continues handling North America bookings, WEST remain on management, and Gallery Publicity stays on press.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">THE\u00b7TEAM, rebranded from Wasserman Music, has been rapidly expanding its London operation and international roster in 2026, most recently adding agents <a href=\"https:\/\/bookingagentinfo.com\/agents\/belinda-law\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Belinda Law<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/bookingagentinfo.com\/agents\/ishsha-bourguet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ishsha Bourguet<\/a> to its UK team, the same office that will anchor this new partnership. The agency recently made headlines with roster signings including <a href=\"https:\/\/bookingagentinfo.com\/news\/julia-wolf-signs-with-the-team-for-worldwide-representation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Julia Wolf<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/bookingagentinfo.com\/news\/meek-mill-signs-with-the%c2%b7team-for-worldwide-representation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Meek Mill<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Takeaways<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This signing signals that Massive Attack, who have historically been selective about live activity, may be gearing up for a more consistent international touring cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bringing in Alex Hardee, one of the most decorated agents in the UK live music business, for worldwide representation outside North America is a serious infrastructural move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hardee has long been known for stewarding career-defining moments for legacy and stadium-level acts, and pairing him with UTA&#8217;s strength in North America creates a formidable global touring machine for the duo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">THE\u00b7TEAM&#8217;s rebranding from Wasserman Music, combined with its aggressive London hiring push in early 2026, suggests the agency is leaning hard into capturing marquee international rock and electronic rosters. Landing an act of Massive Attack&#8217;s cultural stature is a strong signal of that ambition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Does this signing hint at a new studio album or major world tour announcement on the horizon from Massive Attack? How will Hardee&#8217;s known expertise in festival-circuit strategy shape Massive Attack&#8217;s live calendar across Europe, Asia, and beyond?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Massive Attack, the Bristol-born trip-hop duo of Robert &#8220;3D&#8221; Del Naja and Grant &#8220;Daddy G&#8221; Marshall, have signed with global booking agency THE\u00b7TEAM for worldwide live music representation, excluding North America.
