Epic makes Sylvia announcement

RHONE’S RIGHT AT HOME WITH REID: We've been referring to Sylvia Rhone as the President of L.A. Reid’s Epic since Grammy week, and the label has finally gotten around to sending out an official announcement. Rhone’s deepened involvement should further ramp up Reid's hot streak, powered by A Great Big World’s “Say Something” (now at 3.2m), the ongoing success of Album of the Year Grammy nominee Sara Bareilles, KONGOS’ fast-breaking Modern Rock record “Come With Me Now” (already #2 at the format), and the signing of Prince, with a Michael Jackson "from the vaults" project in the works. The two make a formidable team, as confirmed by their remarks. L.A. says he’s “deeply honored and extremely lucky to have the super-talented, legendary Sylvia Rhone take the lead as President of Epic Records. Having worked closely with her for two years, I've witnessed firsthand how she shares a passion for an artists-first culture. I look forward with genuine enthusiasm to the next chapter of Epic Records.” Sylvia counters, “What makes this opportunity different from any other is my partnership with renowned music executive L.A. Reid. I’m looking forward to what I think will be the finest chapter in my career.” (3/20a)
