Tommy Nappi will be moving on from the Elektra Music Group to pursue new opportunities on May 1. EMG Co-President Mike Easterlin made the announcement in an email to the staff.
“While it’s disappointing to see him go, Tommy is one of the best in the business and I know he’ll continue to do great things. I began working with Tommy when he joined the Roadrunner promotion staff as Vice President of Pop Promotion in 2012. He was subsequently elevated to Senior Vice President of Pop/Dance Promotion before making the transition over to the Elektra Music Group upon its launch in 2018. Some of his many promotion highlights include #1 records at Pop from Charli XCX, Panic! At The Disco, Clean Bandit, and Twenty One Pilots, along with five #1 records from Joel Corry at Dance.”
Easterlin added, “Tommy has played a pivotal role in our success, beginning at Roadrunner and now Elektra Music Group, and I can’t thank him enough. He truly understands modern day promotion – whether its analyzing research or breaking down streaming figures or interpreting shazam data – and brings an unparalleled passion that has resulted in a track record of scoring hits that speaks for itself. I wish him all the best in this next chapter.”
