VIRGIN RECORDS has appointed DAVID WOLTER EVP. Most recently SVP/A&R at RCA RECORDS, WOLTER will sign and develop artists for VIRGIN, as well as oversee recording projects for new and established artists.
"DAVID's track record speaks to his impeccable taste and skills as an A&R executive," CAPITOL MUSIC GROUP (CMG) Pres. ASHLEY NEWTON said. "We've had a longstanding and close working relationship in the past, and I couldn't be happier that he is taking on such an important role at VIRGIN RECORDS as we reimagine the label."
"When ASHLEY NEWTON first brought me to VIRGIN almost 20 years ago, the label was creatively left of center and far ahead of the curve," WOLTER said. "STEVE BARNETT and ASHLEY articulate a similarly exciting vision for where they want VIRGIN to be headed, and I thank them for this great opportunity to be playing a key position in helping that vision become reality."
