Deathproof is a Melbourne-based family of communications professionals.  We're a small agency of industrious creatives bringing genuine passion, mad skills and enviable agility to big projects.

 And before you ask, yes, the name is inspired by Tarantino film about daredevil babes seeking automotive revenge on Kurt Russell. Isn't that how everyone gets their business name?

Deathproof was launched in 2011 after founders Rebecca Reato and Emily Kelly jumped ship on their record label jobs to give self employment a crack. The industry called immediately, lending them work on huge arena tours, niche albums and even Soundwave’s on-site PR for it’s mammoth Metallica-headlined festival run (2013).

We have since evolved throughout our twelve years of operation and our work now spans a range of genres and fields. We work with everyone from local legends (King Stingray, The Chats, Parkway Drive) to iconic internationals (Alexisonfire, Amanda Palmer) and award winning festivals (Brunswick Music Festival, Melbourne Music Week).

In addition to musicians and festivals, we’ve worked with comedians (Doug Stanhope, Arj Barker), fashion and lifestyle brands (Mr Simple , Stance), the biggest names in bev (Victoria Bitter, Coopers Brewery, Goose Island), tech start-ups (Tixel), iconic media titles (NME Magazine, Lunch Lady Magazine) and live music venues (Northcote Theatre, The Old Bar). But despite all this, we’re committed to keeping our team tight-knit.

We’re not interested in expanding to become a mega-agency and we won’t take on work that we don’t feel passionate about.

 In the immortal words of Andrew WK, “We do what we like and we like what we do”.
