HISTORY
The origins of The H Group trace back to 1952 when entertainment entrepreneur Jeffrey Kruger founded the legendary Flamingo Club in London before establishing Ember Records, one of Britain’s early independent music companies.
Building on this foundation, the business expanded into talent representation, media rights, live events and commercial partnerships.
FATHER & SON. ONE LEGACY.
Jeffrey Kruger was one of the true pioneers of British independent music. He founded The Flamingo Club in London, one of the country’s most influential modern jazz clubs, which became a cultural landmark and a meeting place for leading artists, musicians and audiences at the centre of the city’s live music scene.
In 1960, he established Ember Records, one of the first independent record companies in the United Kingdom, at a time when the music industry was dominated by major labels.

Over the following decades, Jeffrey built a broad entertainment business spanning record companies, music publishing, film production and international concert promotion. As an impresario, he promoted major artists and tours across the UK, Europe and internationally, helping bring some of the world’s leading performers to new audiences.
That independent spirit continued through his son, Howard Kruger, who began working alongside his father in the family entertainment business, gaining experience across concert promotion, record companies and the wider music industry.
In 1984, Howard established a sports management division within the business, which later developed into H Talent Management. Alongside this, he continued to work across music, media and entertainment projects, expanding the business into new areas of talent representation, media production and commercial partnerships.
In 2009, Howard acquired the business from his father, continuing the family’s long-standing independent involvement in the entertainment industry and developing what would later become The H Group of Companies.
