MANNY'S BIG MOVE

Manny Simon has been upped to SVP Adult Formats at Republic, effective immediately.

He previously served as VP Adult Formats. And prior to his time at Republic, he spent eight years at Def Jam, leaving as Senior Director of Adult Formats.

"Since joining Republic two years ago, Manny has led the team in building the #1 Adult department in the industry," shared EVP Promotion Gary Spangler. "His tenacity for breaking new artists and delivering for our superstars is unmatched. I join the entire team in congratulating Manny on his promotion."

“What’s most impressive about Manny is his thoughtful and strategic approach to every campaign combined with pure passion and drive,” announced President Charlie Walk.

To celebrate, Charlie let Manny take a congratulatory ride around the office building in his Republic-branded chopper.
