Warner Music US has announced the promotion of Will Tanous, previously VP Corp Comms, to the job of Exec VP and Chief Communications Officer, reporting directly to Warner chief Edgar Bronfman Jr, who said of his new top comms man: "He has been a key member of our executive team, and plays an integral role in shaping and communicating the company's business strategy".
One of the first things Tanous can communicate is that US royalty collecting society SESAC has named the major's publishing division, Warner/Chappell, Publisher Of The Year for the sixth year in a row. Which is nice.
