AGD Entertainment was founded by brothers Nathan and Timothy Dohse in the spring of 2010. With over a decade of experience performing across the US, the brothers are passionate about working with eager artists pursuing a career in music.
Nathan's career began as a songwriter and performer in Flagstaff, AZ. From the age of 17 to 27 he toured and recorded with rock outfit Fight The Quiet (co-founded by the Dohse brothers). Mentored by the managers, producers and agents drawn in by the band, he developed a love for both sides of the industry. His first steps behind the curtain started with managing, talent buying, and promoting for all age venues across Arizona. Eventually managing local artists that frequented these venues. He now resides in Nashville where he works as an artist manager, producer, and songwriter. Continuing to record and tour under the artist name 'Dohse'.
Timothy founded the band Fight the Quiet with his brother Nathan in 2004 while attending Northern Arizona University where he later graduated with a Bachelors of Science Degree; Microbiology; Healthcare Careers in 2006. Taking a break in his education to tour and record with the band until 2012 he returned to ASU and recieved a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree in 2014. During this time he maintained employment with Northern Arizona Healthcare as a Process Improvement Specialist, while also working as a booking agent for touring artists across the western United States. He continues to record with artists in Arizona and Tennessee, while advancing his work as a Healthcare Professional and Entrepreneur in Flagstaff, AZ.

What people are saying about AGD Entertainment
AGD Entertainment has given us a lot of direction, helped book a large chunk of our summer album release tour, while challenging us to learn everything for ourselves, make our own lasting connections with venues and local bands, and set us up for success in the future.
I guess you don’t notice just how much distance you’ve covered when moving step by step. When looking back to before we started Zero To 60 by AGD, it’s amazing to see how far we’ve come as a band.
Zero To 60 by AGD provided us with the tools and know-how to move from being a casual local band to a regional touring act with a brand and the ability to grow our fan base.
AGD has done more than just give me the guidance and motivation to ignite my career, they’ve shown me the potential I have within myself to be successful.
