Warner Chappell Music (WCM) has promoted David Goldsen to Executive Vice President, A&R. The LA-based exec will continue to report to Ryan Press, President, North America, WCM.
Since joining the publisher in 2009, Goldsen has discovered and championed a diverse range of chart-topping songwriters.
He’s worked closely with artists such as Zach Bryan, Sleep Token, and Teddy Swims.
He has also played a pivotal role in the development of acts such as Mitski, Vance Joy, the Red Clay Strays, and Tones and I.
In 2024 he featured in Billboard’s prestigious ‘40 Under 40’ list.
Ryan Press: “I’ve had the pleasure of working with David for over 15 years. He has a rare ability to spot talent ahead of what’s hot before it breaks mainstream, and to guide them toward not just their personal dreams, but real cultural impact. Watching him turn that instinct into massive wins for our songwriters and our team has been incredibly rewarding. He’s become a key leader in Warner Chappell’s continued evolution.”
