John Cullen operates as more than a traditional music lawyer – he's an integrated advisor who works within artists' wider teams rather than maintaining the typical distant lawyer-client relationship. Through his practice Amongst Others, John has cultivated long-standing relationships with emerging and established creatives across music, film, television, and fashion, providing strategic guidance that goes beyond basic legal advice.

His client roster spans new and established artists, including bands, songwriters, producers, managers, independent labels, music publishers, and sync agents. John's approach focuses on preventing costly mistakes early in artists' careers by helping them understand complex deal structures and their long-term implications.

Rather than operating purely as a transactional service provider, he offers ongoing strategic counsel that helps artists see how different opportunities interconnect.What sets John apart is his genuine commitment to artist development over profit extraction.

He provides an open-door policy for emerging artists who need professional legal insight without prohibitive market rates. His mild-mannered, friendly approach combined with deep industry knowledge makes complex legal concepts accessible, ensuring artists can make informed decisions that protect both their creative and business interests as they build sustainable careers.
