About Us

The Music People is an established international business-to-business supplier of music-instrument accessories and pro-audio equipment to music retailers and sound contractors. A consistent Music Trades top-100 global supplier, we are proud to support performers in 80 countries. Founded in 1979, The Music People had been family owned and operated for over 40 years. In 2020, we joined forces with Exertis | Jam, North America’s leading distributor of musical instruments, pro-audio, pro-lighting, and consumer electronics.

Our employees and leadership contribute their knowledge and abilities to two brand divisions: On-Stage, designer, manufacturer, and supplier of more than 700 music-instrument accessories and stands, and TMP-Pro, distributor of over 200 pro-audio, video, lighting, and accessories brands.

The key to The Music People’s success supporting performers and contractors around the world is the cultivation of a workplace culture that values long-lasting relationships with customers. The company earned Hartford Business Journal’s Family Business Award in 2013 and Hartford Courant’s Top Workplace accolades four times, most recently in 2021

A Promise of Value and Service!

The Music People embarks on its 3rd decade supplying music dealers, sound contractors, and other professional audio businesses with more than 160 brands of the finest pro-audio products in the industry, including Shure, EV, Telex, AKG, Tascam, Sennheiser, Crown, Atlas Sound and Audio-Technica. 

We are proud to service over 1500 accounts annually, including some of the largest sound contractors in the U.S.A. Through the years, we have learned that it takes more than simply offering impressive products to keep our customers coming back. We have built strong relationships with major manufacturers that give us the ability to offer our customers everything they'd expect from being direct, without the cost and hassle of maintaining 160+ brands.
