(Via PRNewswire) Everyone's fave concert promoters is delivering on their promise to focus more and more on the music. To this end they have reorganized North American Operations. Here are the main changes:
* Bruce Eskowitz (former President of Global Venues and Alliances) has been promoted to the newly created position of Chief Executive Officer - North American Music
* Live Nation's North American concert promotion, venue operation and sponsorship and alliances businesses are now all under a single division: North American Music
* Jason Garner (former COO, Amphitheatre Programming) has been promoted to the position of President of North American Concerts, replacing Charlie Walker, who left to take the helm of C3 Productions (which I reported about earlier today)
* Russell Wallach (former President of National Alliances) has been named President of Alliances, overseeing all national and local sponsorship activities.
* Don Watson (former VP of Operations at House of Blues) has been named Executive Vice President of House of Blues, overseeing the HOB-branded clubs and expansion.
* David Shuman has been named Executive Vice President of North American
finance.
* The Live Nation music business is now comprised of four major divisions:
(1) North American Music, led by Mr. Eskowitz
(2) International Music, led by Carl Pernow (International) and Paul Latham (UK)
(3) Global Touring, led by Arthur Fogel, who is also Chairman of Global Music
(4) Global Digital, led by Bryan Perez
As always, I am keeping an eye on the next steps...
