Rhapsody Voices Relaunches as Boutique Creator Agency with Evergreen as Lead Investor
Rhapsody Voices has announced its spin-out from Evergreen Podcasts, relaunching as a boutique agency focused on the podcast and creator economy. Evergreen is leading a new round of investment to support the company’s next chapter.
Led by CEO and founder Mike Jensen, alongside Partner Harris Lane, Rhapsody Voices will expand beyond traditional ad sales to offer strategic services across advertising, subscription strategy, live events, merchandise, and emerging monetization models for creators and media brands.
“Rhapsody Voices is elevating our services to deliver even greater results for creators and sponsor partners. We’re thrilled to welcome Harris Lane as an executive leader, bringing a proven record of success in our growth areas and a passion for helping our creators’ shows reach their highest potential.” - Mike Jensen, Founder and CEO.
With an existing slate of top-200 podcasts, Rhapsody Voices has announced several new and expanded partnerships for strategic services. These include a partnership with VOX, Inc., a 23-year Hollywood legacy talent agency specializing in voice-overs and celebrity endorsements, to bring a 360 approach to new and expanded media. This partnership brought the signing of Wil Wheaton’s newest Fiction podcast, It’s Storytime with Wil Wheaton. Launched earlier this year, the podcast sat in the top-10 of the Fiction charts for the duration of its first season, and has built a core community on Patreon, which Rhapsody Voices oversaw and will be continuing to grow alongside the show’s sponsorship monetization, merch, and live event arm.
A big win for sponsorship sales, Rhapsody Voices is now exclusively representing Inside True Crime, a top-100 audio true crime podcast with a substantial YouTube following of over 700k subscribers.
The team will also be representing HerMoney for all of their audio subscription, distribution and growth, live event expansion and sales into alternative revenue streams like its 100,000+ newsletter and private coaching services.
Dipping into IP expansion, they have been representing the derivative conversations of a top-100 true crime podcast with award-winning journalist Carol Costello as host. Many talks, led by the Rhapsody team, on multiple derivatives have been set up based on the season 2 of her hit podcast, God Hook.
The investment reflects a shared belief in the evolving needs of the creator space and signals strength on both sides: a strategic pivot for Rhapsody Voices and a forward-looking commitment from Evergreen to back innovative models in audio and beyond. DWNLOAD Media served as exclusive advisor on the transaction.
