London-based artist management firm Connected Artists has announced the recruitment of Ed Millett, who currently manages Guillemots and Laura Groves.
Connect Artists chief Paul McDonald confirmed Millett was now part of his team yesterday, telling reporters: "With Guillemots and [Connected-managed] James Morrison sharing the same label in Polydor, I have always heard good things about Ed. With Ed and [former Virgin Records MD] David Boyd now in our team I feel we offer artists a varied, credible and skilled management team".
Millett himself added: "I am excited by Connected's vision of creating a variety of different models in which artists can thrive artistically and commercially. The key for me really is about flexible thinking and Connected certainly has that approach".
