Girl Friday for Bands
Hi, I’m Tanya de Jager, and I’m all about the South African music scene. While I have a soft spot for rock artists, I work with musicians from all genres. My journey into music admin started in 2013 when my husband, Benjamin de Jager, guitarist for Straatligkinders and Moses Metro Man, asked me to help with his music admin. From that moment, I realized just how many artists need someone to handle the business side of things.I’m here to make sure you can focus on what you do best—creating music—while I take care of the details that keep your career running smoothly.

What I Do
- Music Admin: I’m your go-to person for keeping the admin side of your music career under control—making sure everything is organized and handled with precision.
- Distribution Services: I distribute your music through Electromode Ingrooves and handle the logistics of signing distribution contracts with Virgin Music SA (Electromode Ingrooves), so your music lands where it needs to.
- Registrations for CMOs: I ensure your registrations with South African CMOs like SAMRO, SAMPRA, CAPASSO, *RiSA, and Notification of Works are always up to date, so you can receive the royalties you deserve.

Recommendations

William Wolf
"I am incredibly grateful for connecting with Tanya at Girl Friday for Bands. She helped me with some streaming inconsistencies. Incredibly knowledgeable and kind like-minded human being."

Hein Kruger
"Tanya has a work ethic unlike any other I have worked with, her ability to arrange actions, jump on tasks on hand immediately, and efforts at problem solving is what stands out the most. You will also be happy to know that Tanya always works in the best interest of the artist and therefore will always strive and push to do what is best for the artist, and also get the very best for what she feels the artist desires and deserves."

Ruan Kruger
"Girl Friday has been one of the biggest blessings when it comes to the "admin" side of the music world. All the things that I (and most musicians) don't like doing have been and can be sorted by Tanya from Girl Friday. I would recommend her services to every and any musician."

Deon Meiring
"As jy musiek met die wêreld deel is dit belangrik dat jy dit ook registreer, beskerm en administreer. Dikwels kos dit allerhande oproepe, papierwerk, e-posse en instuurwerk. Dit kan nogal oorweldigend raak – veral in tye wat dit voel asof dit in die pad staan van die skeppende werk. Girl Friday for Bands maak gereeld daai las vir my baie ligter. Dan hou ek met gemoedsrus aan om musiek te maak."

Lucinda
"Tanya is uitstekend! Dinge word vinnig en baie effektief afgehandel. Ek sal haar met groot lof aanbeveel."
