Motley Crue man Nikki Sixx has been appointed as President of US independent Eleven Seven Records, the label that released the 2007 album 'The Heroin Diaries' from Sixx's other band Sixx:AM
Confirming his new role, Sixx told reporters last week: "I find it very interesting to take the artist's craft, the art, the music, the image, and get it out there. It comes under the heading of 'record company president,' but it's a little more than that".
Eleven Seven was founded by Allen Kovac, and has enjoyed most commercial success with Buckcherry. Billboard says that Kovac "believes Sixx can blend his rock acumen, marketing/imaging skills and patience into a force that can tap into a wide range of outlets to follow up the label's platinum success with Buckcherry". So there you go.
