Home to GRAMMY®-nominated, Platinum-selling Newsboys, First Company is among Christian music’s top full-service entertainment management agencies, representing a stable of distinguished artists across the genre.

“I’ve been searching for the right manager for a while now, and I can say that Mike McCloskey was well worth the wait,” said Wilson. “He’s insightful, talented, creative and kind. He knows the music business well and knows that at the end of the day, it’s all about people and relationships. I’m honored to be working with him and can’t wait to see what’s next.”

“Our First Company team couldn’t be more excited and honored to partner with Josh Wilson,” said McCloskey. “The success he’s achieved so far is remarkable, and we know he’s only getting started!”

In addition, Wilson—who has toured with some of Christian music’s biggest artists, including Casting Crowns, Matthew West and Steven Curtis Chapman—is set to host and headline “The Roadshow Futures Tour” this fall.
