Steven Himmelfarb today begins work as an agent at The Billions Corporation after three years in that capacity at Paquin Entertainment in Toronto. His roster, which includes Tokyo Police Club, Final Fantasy, Basia Bulat (Canada only) Hayden (Canada only) and Beirut (Canada only) moves with him.

clients are The Arcade Fire, Death Cab For Cutie, Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds, Sufjan Stevens, Vampire Weekend, Neko Case, Silversun Pickups and Oscar-winning duo The Swell Season.
"It's a very exciting move for me," says Himmelfarb. "Billions is a company I've looked up to since I started in the industry a few years ago. Their reputation, not only with their
clients but among other industry professionals, instantly led me to believe this would be an ideal situation for my own artists.They have a remarkable roster that I admire. I hope to add
to it as a new member of the team."
