Riser House Entertainment has launched a new rock division of the label.
Jason Martin has been appointed President. Martin brings decades of experience to Riser House Rock, most recently serving as VP Promotion at Elektra Music Group. Prior to joining EMG, he held national promotion roles at Roadrunner and Fueled by Ramen, and earlier in his career, he served as Director, Product Manager/Artist Development at RCA Records in New York.
“This adventure into discovering, signing, and amplifying incredible rock talent wouldn’t be possible without the unwavering support of Jennifer Johnson, Matt Swanson, Megan Schultz, Brandon Perdue, and the entire Riser House Entertainment team,” shares Martin.
“Launching a rock label has been a dream, and there’s no one better than Jason Martin to bring it to life,” adds Johnson, Co-Founder of Riser House Entertainment. “His passion, creative vision, and experience make him the perfect force to lead this next chapter.”
Jim Kaufman will serve as JV partner on select artist signings. Kaufman is a veteran producer, mixer and is executive managed by Andrew Brightman of Brightman Music.
Sofia Barbetta, Digital Marketing & Engagement Manager at Riser House Entertainment, will lead online strategy for the newly launched division.
