Notting Hill US chief steps down
By Chris Cooke | Published on Wednesday 17 April 2013
The president of independent music publisher Notting Hill’s US company is departing after over two decades with the business, it has been confirmed. Peter Chalcraft has “decided it’s time for pastures new”, and has sold his stake in the company to fellow execs Andy McQueen and David Loader.
McQueen told Music Week: “I’d like to place on record both my thanks and my admiration for all that Pete achieved with the company over the course of our long partnership. On behalf of Dave and myself and all the staff of Notting Hill Music I’d like to wish him all the very best for the future”.
Meanwhile Chalcraft added: “From very ‘umble beginnings at Bronze Records in 1975 through to my co-ownership of Notting Hill Music Group from the 90s until today I feel extremely lucky to have enjoyed such an incredible journey in this ever evolving business and I am now looking forward to new challenges ahead. My thanks to Andy and Dave for sharing the past 20 years plus of their lives with me and I would like to wish them and the entire Notting Hill Music team much continued success”.
