ATLANTIC RECORDS has officially announced that it has promoted EVP/A&R PETE GANBARG to the newly-created position of Pres./A&R, based in NEW YORK.  GANBARG joined ATLANTIC in 2008 and oversees A&R for ATLANTIC and subsidiary labels including FUELED BY RAMEN and ROADRUNNER.

In a joint statement, Chairman/CEO CRAIG KALLMAN and Chairman/COO JULIE GREENWALD said, “ATLANTIC is above all an A&R-driven company, and PETE is the consummate A&R person.  He has all the elements that go into great A&R --  ears, instinct, taste, and experience – combined with the qualities that make him an extraordinary leader and mentor. Over the past decade, PETE has expertly championed our mission to bring best-in-class artists in every genre into the ATLANTIC family, and give them the environment to do their best and most creative work. Everything we do stems directly from the artists and the music that PETE and his incredible team sign, nurture, and develop -- from brand new acts to superstars. We are thrilled to announce this richly deserved promotion for one of the most valued members of the ATLANTIC family.”
 
"Having the opportunity to lead ATLANTIC’s A&R efforts for the last ten years has truly been a career high for me,” said GANBARG. “CRAIG and JULIE are the absolute best at what they do, and I am thrilled to be able to continue this amazing journey with them. I am so grateful for their belief and support."
