Ava Tunnicliffe
Ava Tunnicliffe is the founder of Tallulah PR, a boutique publicity agency known for its artist-first approach and bold, outside-the-box campaigns.
Born in London and raised in New York City, Ava has over 12 years of experience in music and media. She graduated from Barnard College with a BA in English and began her career in editorial, interning at Teen Vogue, Marie Claire UK, and Cosmo UK, and freelance writing for Refinery29 and NYLON.
With a deep love for both music and fashion, she transitioned into the music industry, landing a PR internship at Republic Records. In 2016, she joined the Republic team full-time as a marketing coordinator, working on campaigns and social media strategy for artists like Post Malone, The Weeknd, Ariana Grande, Florence + The Machine, and Noah Kahan.
While working at the label, Ava began consulting for independent artists on the side, helping them navigate social media, marketing, and press. The demand grew quickly, and in late 2017, she took the leap and launched Tallulah PR.
Since then, Ava has helped shape the careers of rising stars like FINNEAS, Sophie Powers, Elijah Woods, Anna Shoemaker, and ROSIE, and handled PR efforts for bloghouse legend Uffie’s return to music. With a passion for working with clients in all phases of their careers, as well as a knack for designing campaigns that break the mold of traditional PR, Tallulah PR has quickly become as one of the industry’s leading publicity agencies.

Maila Davis
PR Intern - Spring/Summer 2026
Raised in Seattle and Pittsburgh, Maila Davis is a nature lover and playlist addict. At Syracuse University, she is a Public Relations student minoring in Information Technology and Management at the nation's leading communications school. With a deep passion for PR and music, she is enthusiastic to jumpstart her professional journey with Tallulah!
Maila’s free time is constantly spent around music whether that be crate digging for new vinyls, traveling for music festivals, or bouncing between genres throughout her day. Artists that foster her love of music are D'Angelo, Boards of Canada, Bobby Caldwell, Beach House, and Cocteau Twins. She loves how music is a shared language and that no matter how polarizing a five-minute piece or genre is, everyone is collectively passionate about the topic. This continues to be her driving force for pursuing music PR and what motivated her to study abroad in Berlin, Germany. In Europe, she explored music’s power on an international scale which solidified her career path.
Outside of music, Maila enjoys reading realistic fiction, rewatching classic rom-com movies, and re-examining the same topics with friends. She looks forward to growing more confidence in her strategic talent and gaining knowledge in the combined world of public relations and the music industry during her internship!

Emma Parrott
PR Intern - Summer 2026
Based just outside of Los Angeles in Moorpark, California, Emma has always been close to the arts and entertainment. From an early age, she was drawn to music, secretly downloading excessive amounts of songs onto her iPod and singing to anyone who would listen — even in the grocery store. Today, she spends her time going to concerts and house shows, adding to her CD and vinyl collections, and reading the latest articles from Pitchfork, The Quietus, Stereogum, and more.
With her love of the arts and curiosity about the East Coast, Emma has spent the last three years attending Emerson College as a Business of Creative Enterprises major. Through her education, she has focused on developing a deeper understanding of music business, particularly in the public relations, marketing, and touring fields. These pursuits have helped Emma discover her love for the collaborative storytelling that acts as the backbone of the music industry. The opportunity to work closely with artists and creatives to build meaningful, innovative, and authentic stories and campaigns is what drives Emma’s passion for the industry and fuels her excitement about joining Tallulah PR’s team.
Outside of music, Emma also has a passion for fashion, photography, reading, graphic design, and nature.
