Background on Janick

JANICK AT THE DISCO: Insiders say John Janick’s immediate agenda as the incoming the President/COO of Interscope will be to expand the creative marketing and A&R of the storied label. He knows a thing or two about both: his signings include Fallout Boy, Paramore and Panic at the Disco to his Fueled by Ramen label, while he drove the marketing initiatives for Cee Lo Green and Bruno Mars for Atlantic and Elektra, respectively; Janick was Co-President of Elektra. The question on everyone’s mind as Janick prepares to make the move to IGA is: will he be groomed to be the heir apparent to Jimmy Iovine? (6/18a)
