APPOINTMENTS
Talent agency WME has promoted Lucy Dickins to Global Head Of Contemporary Music & Touring. “I am grateful to the leadership at WME for supporting me in this role, and for my partners and team members I have the privilege of working with every day in the music division”, she says. “There is no place like WME, and I’m excited for what we will achieve together on behalf of our clients”.
The US wing of another booking agency, Wasserman Music, has hired agents Andrea Johnson, Emily Yoon and Erika Noguchi. The latter two represent, among other things, Disney Concerts, which stages and licenses shows that use Disney music. Vice President Seth Malasky says: “I’ve known and respected Andrea for over 20 years and recognise her to be a creative, focused and passionate agent. Emily and Erika’s roster has dramatically enhanced our offerings in the area of IP-driven live performance projects, many of them from one of the world’s largest media companies”.
