WenerHouseMusic Inc. / HOAX
Artist Management + Special Event Services
Owned and operated by Eli Wener

Eli Wener started in the music business at the age of 15 selling CDs for high school bands in Vancouver. This led to booking these bands (and others) in various venues around the city including the Marine Club, Backstage Lounge and the Media Club. Seeing a void of proper high school shows, Eli produced his first of two all ages concert productions at Mesa Luna.

After high school graduation, Eli was one of the first interns at S.L. Feldman & Associates and studied Entertainment Business Management at the Art Institute of Vancouver.

Then in 2006 Eli booked his first speaking engagement with film director Spike Lee to be held at the Orpheum Theatre. Spike did not fulfill his contract obligations. Eli and his business partner fully recouped their losses in a settlement with the talent.

In 2007 Eli learned how to scout, book and promote club acts during his two year, Thursday night residency at Lola’s Cabaret. In addition he promoted shows at the Red Room, Penthouse and The Royal Unicorn.

In 2008 Eli worked as tour manager for Sweatshop Union as well as handling their marketing.

He continued to produce and promote concerts and speaking engagements for events such as Code Live: 2010 Olympics, former Vice President Al Gore, New Forms Festival, Olio Festival, Dan Mangan, Brasstronaut, Hey Ocean, Bikini, Brother Ali, ?uestlove (The Roots), Hannah Georgas, The Zolas, Apostle of Hustle and many more.

Recognizing an area that had been undeveloped, Eli acquired a Canadian talent roster and began independently licensing their music to video games, TV shows and multimedia including: EA Sports "Fight Night Round 4", C.S.I, CBS, Paramount, CBC, A&E, Warner Bros. and MTV

Currently, Eli spends the majority of his time managing all personal and business relations for No Sinner, Humans, Times Neue Roman and Robert Bolton as well as producing select special events in Vancouver.

In addition, Eli does in house booking, promotions and production at Vancouver's newest live music venue, Electric Owl (electricowl.ca)

Eli has attended and participated in numerous music conferences and festivals around North America; SXSW, CMW, transmission: Global Summit, TEDxVancouver, NXNE, Coachella, Sasquatch, POP Montreal, Juno Fest, WCMA's, Rifflandia and Burning Man.

Over the years Eli has donated his time to charity work sitting on the board and co-producing events for such organizations as the "Jewish Community Centre of Greater Vancouver Sports Dinner", the "Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Society", "eatART Foundation" and "Ropka Canada" and as a FACTOR Juror.
