Actually, one more bit of Sanctuary Music related appointments news. US based Liberation Entertainment, who describe themselves as "a leading independent global distributor of visual content for the broadcast and home entertainment markets", have announced they are opening a new European office based in London to exploit the company's catalogue of films, TV programmes and music concert recordings over here - initially through DVD distribution partnerships.
This has a Sanctuary link, because the man running the London office is Spencer Pollard, formerly VP Commercial Development at Sanctuary Visual Entertainment. Confirming that appointment, Liberation boss Jay Boberg told CMU: "I am very pleased to have someone of Spencer's experience and reputation at the helm of our European operation. I have a long history with IRS Records and MCA Records of enjoying the benefits of an operating company in the UK. Spencer's and my relationships will help us be very aggressive in both acquisitions and DVD marketing and sales in England and across the continent."
