WARNER REBOOTS SONGKICK

1/14/20

Warner Music has appointed Aaron Randall and Bill Ashton as the new Managing Directors of Songkick, the global live music discovery service it acquired in 2017. Based in London, the duo report to WEA Europe EVP Emmy Lovell.

Ashton was most recently Senior Vice President, Artist Services at Warner Music, and Randall takes on the new title in addition to his existing role as Songkick’s Chief Technology Officer.

Mark McIntyre, Songkick’s outgoing CEO, will support the transition to the new leadership team, and will remain an adviser to Songkick, as well as working on other Warner Music projects from this summer.

“Aaron and Bill will be building on an amazing legacy left by Mark McIntyre, who did an incredible job of building the business and then bringing it into the Warner family,” WEA President Tony Harlow said. “There’s a huge global market for the type of service Songkick offers and we’re in a great place to meet that demand."
