Nathan Dohse is the COO of AGD Ent. Co. & the author and founder of Zero To 60 By AGD; a curriculum based day to day management program for performing artists. Like many others in the artist management field, he got his start as a performing artist himself. Unlike many others… that start was in a Christian Screamo Rock band, which later transitioned to the more accessible genre of Indie/Rock with similarities to Jimmy Eat World, Foo Fighters, and Augustana. The group achieved many notable opportunities over a decade of activity, allowing Nathan and his brother Tim (bandmate and AGD Co-Founder) the necessary experience to transition to artist management.

“If I’m being honest with myself, I spent more time on the business of being in a band, than I did focusing on the art we were trying to create. Don’t get me wrong, I can still write a good hook, but it wasn’t my main concern at any given moment.” says Dohse

It was with this retrospective view in mind that Dohse began to work on the 250+ task curriculum focused on helping artists Balance Art & Industry. The curriculum reached completion in December of 2013 and Dohse launched the program with 4 beta artists the following Spring. He continues to grow the artist roster within the program while expanding the service offerings from AGD Ent. Co.
