Phantom Management, her new in-house management firm, is led by Catherine Carlile, Brandi's wife, who has previously managed The Looking Out Foundation for 13 years. Carolyn Snell joins the management team, bringing extensive experience from working with artists like Janet Jackson, Reba McEntire, and John Mayer.

At CAA, Bryan Lourd and Rob Light will lead Carlile's representation team. This strategic move aims to expand her presence in film, television, and publishing sectors.

Key developments:

  • Second book announcement with Harper Collins' Dey Street imprint (following her bestseller "Broken Horses: A Memoir")
  • Potential development of her writing across various media platforms
  • Continued partnership with Low Country Sound and Elektra as her label
  • Retained relationship with Sack & Co. for publicity

The transition appears amicable, driven by a desire for fresh perspectives rather than any discord with previous representation.
