Rock media firm TeamRock has announced Michael Tobin as its new Chairman. He replaces John Myers, who co-founded the company in 2013 and who is now retiring from the role. Tobin has been a non-executive member of the company’s board for almost a year and a half, and was previously CEO of datacentre company Telecity Group.

TeamRock Chief Exec Billy Anderson said in a statement: “We’d like to place on record our thanks to John for his strong leadership, guidance and friendship since the birth of this company and for his continued support through his shareholding”.

Prior to launching TeamRock, Myers and Anderson were both execs at the Guardian Media Group’s now defunct radio company. The new business had both broadcasting and magazine publishing ambitions, the latter centring on the acquisition of the Classic Rock and Metal Hammer brands from Future Publishing. It has since added Prog and Blues Magazine to its roster.
