NATHAN JAMES TETTEY SIGNS FOR KNUCKLEHEAD.
25 January 2023

Nathan James Tettey is already a cornerstone of the UK music industry thanks to his work as a video commissioner and creative spark plug. He's also a prolific filmmaker, joining Knucklehead for global representation.

Not one to sit back and post self-congratulatory messages on social media, Tettey has already shot his first promo for the company: 'Martin's Sofa' for Headie One (aka Irving Adjei). Londoners Tettey and Adjei have worked on several videos together over the years, and this biographical effort shows much how much the duo have matured.


Impressed with Tettey's progress, managing partner Tim Katz says: "Nathan's work is at the very sharpest point of contemporary culture in the UK music scene. He's a modern-day polymath and joining forces with him to introduce his work to agencies, brands and clients is going to be a wild and enjoyable ride."

Seatbelt fastened, Tettey, who also directed Dave's seminal 'Black' video, says: "As a wonderfully hard-headed guy, it's only right that I've joined the Knuckleheads. I've long been an admirer of their work and work ethic." Judging by his explosive track record so far, expect Tettey's next project to arrive sooner rather than later.
