The trio also advised the Pink world tour in 2023-24 and Green Day tour for 2024. Other clients include Taylor Swift, Adele, Ludwig Göransson, Elton John and Stevie Wonder. The film-TV trio of Levin, Daniel Passman (son of Donald) and Snow advised Jim Parsons for reprising his famous character in CBS Television’s “Young Sheldon” finale.
