Tom Mackay hype

MACKAY RISING: Look for Universal Republic A&R exec Tom Mackay’s sphere of influence to increase after his success as a point man for the label’s involvement in NBC’s hit series, The Voice. Expect an announcement of his new responsibilities soon. Meanwhile, Mackay is spending the summer chasing golfer Phil Mickelson’s balls with his brother, caddy Bones. Nice. (7/18a)
