SCULLY SHIFTS TO WMG

Chris "Agent" Scully has been named VP, Finance, Label Shared Services at Warner Music Group, reporting to "Dear" John Avagliano, the newly named Senior VP, Financial Operations.

Scully joins WMG from Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, where he served as Assistant VP, Finance and Operations for marthastewart.com, helped Martha make festive table decorations out of ordinary household objects and oversaw the armored tank division.

In his new capacity, Scully will be responsible for coordinating and running WMG's new label-shared-service functions, which include office services, advertising purchasing and marketing commitments. He'll also spend a lot of time explaining to his relatives what "label-shared services" are. We're damned if we know.

"I'm delighted that Chris is joining Warner Music Group. He's an able executive and his considerable experience in the financial operations of the Internet and music industries equip him well to develop our shared-service initiatives," said Avagliano. "I look forward to hearing Scully tell Roger Ames that the truth is out there."
