Stem has elevated Alison Junker and Chris Allen to Vice President, Artist & Label Relations.

With a focus on Nashville, Junker has helped lead Stem’s continued expansion across country, Americana and Christian music.

Prior to joining Stem, Junker served as a Manager for Artist & Label Partnerships at Spotify. During her time with the company, she worked on initiatives for Dolly Parton, Kenny Chesney, Kacey Musgraves and Zach Bryan, among many others, and helped lead the third annual Spotify House activation during CMA Fest.

In his role, Allen will continue to expand Stem’s footprint across rock, alternative and emerging internet-driven scenes.

Allen joined Stem with more than 20 years of experience across artist management, digital audience development, publishing and A&R with experience at The Collective, ONErpm and more.

“Alison and Chris embody the artist-first mentality that defines Stem,” says Bobby Davin, SVP of Artist & Label Relations. “They’ve each built deep trust within their respective communities while helping artists navigate growth on their own terms. These promotions reflect both their leadership internally and the impact they continue to have across the independent music landscape.”
