Jeff Beck appoints Goldsmith as manager
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 16 January 2009
Jeff Beck who, as reported yesterday, is about to be inducted into the US Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame for the second time (this time for his solo work rather than as one of The Yardbirds), has announced he has appointed music industry veteran Harvey Goldsmith as his new manager.
Goldsmith will oversee the next phase of Beck’s career, including the release of a live DVD in March and a new album later in the year.
Confirming his new business relationship with Goldsmith, Beck told reporters: “I have known Harvey for a long time and we met again at the Classic Rock Awards at the end of last year. Soon after I decided I wanted a change in my career so I approached Harvey in December. It’s a great team and we have big plans, including new material and more performances”.
Goldsmith added: “I’m very excited about working with Jeff, it will be a great partnership. He is raring to go and his band are incredible, just brilliant”.
