Dead Oceans / Jagjaguwar / Secretly Canadian Announce Global Expansion

12 Jul 2012

Dead Oceans / Jagjaguwar / Secretly Canadian are proud to announce the expansion of their global operations.

Hannah Overton, previously A&R Director at XL Recordings, will oversee operations in UK and Europe as General Manager. While leading the label group's London office, Overton will also have a creative and A&R focus.

Laura Sykes joins the UK team from Ninja Tune as Head of European Sales and Digital Strategy.

Mike Holdsworth moves to become European Projects Director, and Tom Davies joins the team full time as European Marketing and Product Manager.

The label group will further develop their New York office as Jon Coombs is promoted to Associate Director of A&R and with the addition of Project Manager Melanie Sheehan, who joins from Sonic Boom Records in Seattle after working for several years as store manager/buyer. The New York and London offices report to the label group's home office in Bloomington, Indiana, headed by Managing Director Nick Blandford.

Following recent successes such as Sharon Van Etten's 'Tramp' (Jagjaguwar), the labels anticipate releases this autumn from Bill Fay (Dead Oceans) and Jens Lekman (Secretly Canadian).
