MOD SUN SIGNS WITH UTA

UTA has signed writer, director, producer and alt-rocker Mod Sun for representation in all areas worldwide.

Born Derek Ryan Smith, the multihyphenate has released four albums, three EPs, six mixtapes and more than 100 songs. His most recent full-length, Internet Killed the Rockstar, released in February 2021 via Big Noise, has amassed 100m global streams and spawned the artist's first Top 20 Alternative single with "Flames" f/Avril Lavigne.

He also co-wrote fellow UTA client Machine Gun Kelly's platinum single "Bloody Valentine," from the #1 album Tickets to My Downfall. Alongside MGK, Mod Sun is co-writing and co-directing the upcoming documentary Good Mourning With A U, which drops 4/20.

He will embark on an arena tour with Lavigne in Canada later this year.

Mod Sun is managed by Amit Krispin, Dave Beame and Brian Jaffe.
