10th Street Entertainment has launched Pub Crawl Recordings and Pub Crawl Songs, adding recorded music and publishing operations to its artist management business. The company said the move positions it as a full-service independent music enterprise.
The management firm, whose roster includes Mötley Crüe, Five Finger Death Punch and Ice Nine Kills, will build out initial rosters for both new divisions through the remainder of the year. The Orchard will serve as global distribution partner and publishing administration partner.
Label structure
Pub Crawl Recordings will operate three genre-specific subsidiary labels:
- Bushido: pop, dance and indie
- 10th Street Rock: rock and metal
- Pub Crawl: country and Americana
Leadership and Nashville team
Piero Giramonti has been appointed Executive Vice President of Operations and Artist Manager. He previously served as President of Sumerian Records and General Manager of Capitol Music Group‘s Harvest Records and Caroline Independent Distribution. In the new role, Giramonti will oversee global infrastructure, day-to-day operations and strategic scaling for the Pub Crawl division while managing select artists.
Joining 10th Street’s Nashville office are Elizabeth Brahan Wright as Vice President of Music Publishing and Artist Manager, Clint Perry as Artist Manager and Jim Prisco as Artist Manager. The team manages Tyler Farr, Morgan Wade and Kanaan Brock.
Giramonti said of Chief Operating Officer Lewis Kovac and President Chris Nilsson:
"I am so happy to be joining an organization with the pedigree of 10th Street Entertainment, where artists come first, and an incredible staff operate with passion, and with complete transparency and integrity. I have known Lewis Kovac for 30 years. We have always had stellar success and great times working together. I have only recently gotten to know Chris Nilsson, but I can already see that he has passion, is thoughtful, calm, highly knowledgeable and very cool. It doesn’t get any better than this."
