Nehemiah Consultants is one of the fastest growing public relations companies in the country that focuses entirely on PR and Corporate Communications. Concentrating also on another segment of PR which remains untouched in the local market, Nehemiah Consultants supports and empowers many talented local artists in the music industry. Most recently the company sponsored public relations and image building related services for acts such as SELECTRO, Kingdom Life and Centre Stage.
SELECTRO comprising the talented DJ duo of Blake and Dilu were the first Sri Lankan and only the second artist from South Asia to perform at Tomorrowland, one of the biggest electronic music festivals held in the world. Following Tomorrowland SELECTRO also performed in Austria and Switzerland further showcasing Sri Lankan talent to the world.
Kingdom Life
Sweeping the entire spectrum of awards on offer urban spiritual band Kingdom Life created TNL Onstage history when they walked away with the awards for Best Band, Best Original Song, Most Poplar Band (in the “Rock the Vote online competition”), and the Wild Elephant Wild Take Award while Sheahan was also adjudged the Most Dynamic Musician by an esteemed panel of judges including veteran musician Harsha Makalanda.
Centre Stage 2016 was Chokolaate magazine’s rendition of a teen talent search which was won by Rometh Suriyarachchi, another 
talented young musician from Alethea International School. His rendition of ‘Writing’s on the Wall’ by Sam Smith was exceptional. The talent search itself was an open stage for youth from across the island to show off their vocal capabilities.
In all three instances Nehemiah Consultants came up with strategic communications methods to get the message across to both the local and global audiences.
Commenting on the decision to support such acts Managing Director of Nehemiah Consultants Sanura Gunawardana said, “Founded on the principles of giving new life to brands through PR, Nehemiah’s cornerstones are the young people who make it all possible. Our team is a vibrant bunch who is fresh with new and innovative ideas and this is the exuberance that we extend to our clients. We have so much faith in the youth of this country that we extend our help whenever and wherever possible, but we are also selecting them based on the potential we see in each act.”
Looking forward to making ‘Celebrity PR Management,’ the next in-thing in the industry, Nehemiah Consultants offers tailor-made packages to those who wish to brand themselves and their talent in a positive way. Nehemiah is capable of not only working in English, Sinhala and Tamil but also writes and translates to foreign languages.
