Deadmau5 is signed to CAA for representation across the board.
The Canadian electronic music producer will work closely with CAA on his future endeavors, including world tours, gaming and tech-focused endeavors, among other opportunities.
“Deadmau5 has redefined the intersection of music, art and technology, and we're excited to be a part of his next chapter,” Deadmau5's agent at CAA, Rais-Shaghagh Ferryhe says Bulletin board.
Given Deadmau5's many works in music, technology, art and beyond, his move to CAA was a function of the agency's ability to offer opportunities with its other divisions outside of live touring. The artist was previously represented by UTA, with whom he signed in 2020.
Deadmau5 has a long list of accomplishments stretching back two decades. His debut album was released in 2005 and in 2011 he became the first electronic artist to play the mainstage at Lollapalooza.

In 2022, his set as Kx5 with Kaskade set a record for the biggest ticketed global dance event of 2022, according to Billboard Boxscore.
His catalog has 1.7 billion official US streams on demand, with Deadmau5 being the lead artist, according to Luminate. Hits such as “Ghosts 'n' Stuff”, “Strobe” and the Kaskade collaboration “I Remember” helped introduce electronic music to mainstream audiences, with his music and live performances also infusing boundary-pushing technology.
