The name Oracle Artists is rooted in founder Elliot Jacobson’s lifelong interest in self-betterment that led him to study the teachings of ancient Greek philosophers. The word oracle evokes both insight and foresight, which are two funde qualities that define Elliot’s approach to management. He views the artist as a visionary: someone with a unique perspective of the world around them and the ability to express an inner wisdom about the present and, often, the future. In parallel, the role of a manager is to guide, protect, and help shape that vision with clarity, strategy, and belief. Oracle Artists was born from this dual understanding.

Elliot Jacobson is a seasoned music professional with a uniquely well-rounded background as a drummer, songwriter, producer, and artist manager. Before founding Oracle, he toured extensively and recorded with acclaimed artists including Ingrid Michaelson, Elle King, Jenny Owen Youngs, Emily Kinney, and many, many more. As a songwriter and producer, published by Kobalt Music, Elliot has worked with a wide range of artists including Elle King, Slander, Porter Robinson, Paul Kalkbrenner, and Vérité, bringing inspired artistry and sharp instincts to every collaboration.

Today, through Oracle Artists, Elliot manages a bold and diverse roster that includes Parson James, Serena Sun, Tristan Tritt, Jordan Anthony, and more. He specializes in working closely with artists to shape long-term careers with purpose, offering deep support across songwriting, branding, release strategy, touring, partnerships, and team building.

Oracle Artists is also committed to shaping the future of the music industry through mentorship and education. The company runs a high-touch internship program that gives early-career professionals real experience in artist development and management. Elliot is especially focused on creating space for diverse voices and inclusive leadership, helping to build a stronger, more representative future for the industry.

Through every challenge and opportunity, Elliot remains a sturdy and steadfast presence, balancing creative freedom with strategic foresight.
