MUSIC MANAGERS FORUM NAMES NEW CHAIRS
10/4/24

The U.K.-based Music Managers Forum has appointed Niamh Byrne, co-founder of Eleven Management, and Jill Hollywood, founder and MD of Echo Beach Management, as its new Chair and Vice Chair, respectively.

Byrne (pictured) and Hollywood succeed Paul Craig and Kwame Kwaten, who stood down last month after completing two three-year terms.

“Niamh and Jill are two of the U.K.’s most respected music managers. In addition to building enormously successful businesses, both have contributed greatly to the MMF Board over recent years. As our new Chair and Vice Chair, I’m really looking forward to working more closely with them as a source of support, expertise and inspiration building on the legacy of Paul and Kwame," said Music Managers Forum Chief Executive Annabella Coldrick.

In 2011, Byrne co-founded Eleven Management with Régine Moylett, achieving commercial and creative successes with Damon Albarn, Gorillaz, Blur and Graham Coxon. They’ve subsequently invited new artists, and managers, to join the team, adding The WAEVE, Riz Ahmed, Bashy, Bastille, Naomi Scott and Meyy to their roster.

Hollywood is one of the U.K.’s leading producer/writer-focused managers. After more than a decade at Big Life Management, she founded Echo Beach Management in 2016. Her current roster includes Ash Howes, Cameron Blackwood and Jacknife Lee, among many others.
