Downtown Music Services has announced a bunch more promotions in its US offices. Bruce Lampcov becomes EVP & Executive Producer, Sean McGraw takes on the newly created role of SVP Catalogue Management, Emily Stephenson is now VP Business Operations, and Frank Pagano has been promoted to become VP, Global Client Services.
There have been a number of executive rejigs at Downtown this year since the music firm decided to sell its own songs catalogue to Concord and fully focus on its music services business, providing admin, distribution, marketing and creative services to independent creators and rights-owners.
Following that change of focus, founder and CEO Justin Kalifowitz moved into an Executive Chairman role, with COO Andrew Bergman being promoted to CEO. There have been a number of other promotions since then.
Commenting on the latest promotions, Mike Smith, Global President of Downtown Music Services, says: "I am delighted that, at the end of a successful year for Downtown Music Services, I am able to announce new roles for some of Downtown's longest serving employees".
"Emily, Sean, Frank and Bruce are hugely talented and dedicated people who have always enjoyed a close relationship with our songwriters and their catalogues", he adds. "These positions reflect the tremendous contribution they have made to the company in recent years and underline our commitment to providing the best possible service to the songwriting community".
