Joey McCarthy Named A&R/Creative Manager For Fourward Music
Joey McCarthy has joined Fourward Music as A&R/Creative Manager. McCarthy, who has years of experience in music and brand marketing, will be working out of the management company’s Los Angeles office.
“Joey is an incredibly talented, hungry and honorable executive who has seamlessly fit in the company culture immediately,” said Fourward Music founder and CEO Will Ward.
“Joey brings a lot of knowledge and excitement to the Fourward Music Team,” adds Fourward President Shannan Hatch. “He has connections in multi-genres and is well respected. We are creating a unique team on the business side as well as the creative space and feel Joey is the perfect addition to help create an even more diverse roster.”
“I am grateful for the opportunity to work with someone as accomplished as Will,” said McCarthy. “Fourward has done an incredible job at signing emerging talent, which makes this a really exciting time to join the team. I look forward to contributing to the growth of Fourward music under Will and Shannan’s leadership.”
McCarthy also brings with him two up-and-coming DJs to join the Fourward roster. Seventeen-year-old DJ/producer TOMOS and London-based DJ/producer Aaron Hibell. TOMOS recently released his debut single with Red Music, which featured Jake Miller and quickly earned its way onto Radio Disney, where it stayed for 12 consecutive weeks. Hibell has had official remixes for Diplo, Sia, Lennon Stella, 3LAU and others and started producing at age 18. He is currently working on his debut EP.
