"Fiona was a hardworking hustla back when I first started in 95, she
was there at one of my first shows and continues to be a trend spotter
and trend maker. I have great respect for her and her work ethic and
tenacity in this business."

"Fiona Bloom is fuel for this industry. Often this biz is clotted with the kind of hype that makes reality questionable, she really paints a great picture on the possibility of a gig being the greatest ever. Her hype is backed by a unique care and concern for the art, the promoter AND the customer. A rare quality.

"I have known Fiona Bloom for at least 8 years and during that time I've come to know her as both a mentor and a very dear friend. It was Fiona that gave me my first opportunity in the entertainment business and if it wasn't for her amazing ability to discover raw talent I may not have made it as far as I have. Today I'm a reporter for BET News and Fi is one of my most valuable resources: she's always on the cutting edge, on top of the trends, and she stays tightly connected to the industry's major players both in US and across the world! Fiona is also incredibly creative, intelligent, a people person who once you meet, you'll certainly never forget. This woman is truly an inspiration."

"This lady knows about everything an inch before it 'blooms!' No joke. She is up on everything and has been at the vanguard of every turn and twist I have made in my career in the biz. When I turn a corner, Fiona is there with an invite and the scoop.
I don't know what I'd do without her! She knows about every new development when it happens! And everyone loves her!"

"I have to say it has been above and beyond a pleasure to have been introduced to Miss Fiona Bloom this year. Not only did she lock me into a world of music and experiences I am forever grateful for, but she also became my mentor in the process.
As a friend and true colleague with respect for the hustle, she recommended me to all her favorite DJs, sponsors, bands & clubs to last me an eternity. Her guidance and never ending ideas are always sincere and on point. I can't thank her enough for showing me the ropes of Joes Pub and giving me such great shoes to fill. Dearest Fiona, you did so much for me in 2005, I can not thank you enough... I love you sooo much and am so grateful you put me on. "

"In the 15 years i have known Fiona she has turned me on to a variety of artists from a diverse range of musical genres. What i most appreciate about Fiona's taste is the consistently high quality of the artists she chooses to champion and represent. I have come to learn that when the "Bloom Effect" comes calling, I'm always ready and willing to listen."

"Fiona Bloom is the most professional and enthusiastic person I have ever worked with. From the beginnings of my career as a jazz musician, she took me under her wing and made the world notice. She believed in me from the start and planned and plotted the correct course for the proper exposure to the industry's most influential executives. She made waves in the most professional way and is an absolute expert in all facets of dealing with an artist. As a result, I was able to perform on television, at very important jazz festivals, nightclubs, universities, and other venues and achieve critical acclaim. This enabled me to be accept an invitation to join the world famous Count Basie Orchestra, which for me at that time in 1993, was the most coveted position for someone in my field. In just two short years, Fiona Bloom proved to be an amazing businesswoman who put total dedication into whatever she was working on with me and other artists. Perhaps most important, she has wide knowledge of many different types of musics and genres of entertainment. Ms. Bloom has the capacity to run a Fortune 500 company flawlessly and anyone who works with her will surely make it to the highest level of achievement they desire. Simply, Fiona Bloom is the very best and any artist or company would be privileged to be associated with her."

of who I call the beautiful people. Her ability to gauge amazing
heartfelt music below the radar and then her dedication to sharing those
artists with the world is a true treasure. I always know that I need to

future like Fiona!
