\n\tBBR Music Group senior vp of promotion Carson James<\/strong> and senior director of A&R Chris Poole<\/strong> have exited the company as part of a global restructuring at BMG, which eliminated their positions, Billboard<\/em> has confirmed. Country Aircheck<\/a><\/em> first reported the news of their exits.<\/p>\n

\n\tEarlier on Thursday (Nov. 30), BMG revealed a new structure for its global staff,<\/a> which BMG CEO Thomas Coesfeld <\/strong>stated is part of \u201ca strategy for future growth\u201d and \u201clocal where necessary, global where possible.\u201d The restructure moves BMG\u2019s catalog, sales and marketing teams in its recorded division into global roles, joining the already global purview of its investments, technology, rights and royalties functions. In local markets, artist relations and marketing campaign managers will have access to these global teams for analytics, content creation and media planning\/buying, the company\u2019s announcement noted.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\tBMG Announces \u2018New Structure\u2019 Combining Local and Global\u00a0Approach\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\n\tJames joined BBR in 2009, having previously spent nine years with Curb Records in a similar role. Prior to his work at Curb, James programmed<\/a> country station WLWI in Montgomery, Ala.<\/p>\n

\n\tPoole joined BBR in 2018 and previously worked at CTM\/Writer\u2019s Ink, where he served in artist development. Poole initially launched his career working in artist management at Paravel Management, which he co-founded in 2013.<\/p>\n

\n\tJames noted to Billboard<\/em> in a statement, \u201cI\u2019m honored to have had such an amazing run.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBMG\u2019s restructuring announcement<\/a> also outlined a new, Los Angeles-based global catalog team, as well as a \u201crecalibration\u201d of its presence in continental Europe as part of its local-global emphasis, which will focus on \u201cfunctional centers of excellence within Europe.\u201d This is in addition to the aggregation of budgets and expertise, the further acceleration of its investments in tech and the myBMG system for artists and the clarification of roles\/structures, which the company says will make it \u201cmore accountable to its artist and songwriter clients.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cFifteen years after the emergence of streaming, music is going through another tectonic change,\u201d Coesfeld said in a statement. \u201cIt is vital we now reengineer our business to make the most of that opportunity. BMG has challenged the conventions of the music industry ever since we began, bringing music publishing and recordings under one roof with a distinctive service-orientated and transparent approach. Now new ways of creating and consuming music and looming changes in streaming economics are challenging us to do even better for our clients.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBBR Music Group\u2019s artist clients include reigning CMA Awards entertainer of the year Lainey Wilson and new artist of the year winner Jelly Roll, as well as \u201cTry That in a Small Town\u201d hitmaker Jason Aldean, Dustin Lynch, Elvie Shane, Parmalee, Blanco Brown and Brooke Eden.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
