About Our Founder, Woodie Stevenson
Pilot Music Business Services officially opened in 1998 in New York City. Founded by Woodie Stevenson, our company offered a lifetime of experience from day one. This is all thanks to a musical journey that began with Woodie as a child musician and performer.
Woodie's industry experience developed at first through family, as two of Woodie's relatives are prominent rock/pop music producers. Woodie spent much of her young adult years backstage or sitting in on sessions with superstars, including Jimmy Hendrix, Alice Cooper, KISS, Hall and Oates, and Steve Perry.
As an active contributor to the Industry, Woodie is a regular panelist, writes articles, and speaks at industry conferences.

"We have had the opportunity to work with Pilot Music a couple of times. They have always been professional and prompt in getting answers and agreements from artists we wished to communicate with. They have gotten us favorable terms and have made the paperwork and process understandable and manageable. In an industry full of resistance and hurdles, Pilot has been a great collaborator in bringing our vision to life."
