Chelsea Shear

Chelsea Shear spent a decade inside two of independent electronic music's most important labels — nearly five years at Skrillex's OWSLA, then leading Monstercat's Uncaged label from 2021 to 2025.

The roster includes Virtual Riot, Sullivan King, Ray Volpe, Whipped Cream, RUSKO, GG Magree, Adventure Club, G-REX, Jessica Audiffred, Riot Ten, Tisoki, and dozens more.

In 2025, she founded SHEAR.

Listening first. Finding the right collaborators, shaping records from the inside, and getting them across the finish line without losing what made them worth making.

SHEAR works with artists who are ready, managers who need real A&R infrastructure, and labels building something they can hear before it exists.

Based in Los Angeles.
