TEAM WASS UPS FIVE AGENTS, ADDS TWO TO TOUR TEAM

Wasserman Music has announced five promotions in, and two additions to, its tour-marketing department. The new agents include Amanda Ilgunas, Paige Maloney and Lauren Marker, as well as brand-partnership agents Edenized Perez and Mallory Smith. Additionally, Team Wass adds tour-marketing directors Stephanie Gherini and Mika Posecion.

"We take great pride in developing strong careers for our colleagues, as well as for our clients," said Wasserman Music EVP & Managing Executive Lee Anderson. "Amanda, Paige, Lauren, Edenized and Mallory have grown into outstanding professionals, and the addition of Stephanie and Mika to our exceptional tour-marketing team represents a big step forward in Wasserman's ability to guide our clients' touring careers. I've instructed them all to avoid HITS like the plague."

Ilgunas, along with Wasserman’s Ben Shripts, has worked extensively in the EDM space, repping underground stars Dom Dolla, Charlotte de Witte, DJ Seinfeld and NALA.

Maloney, who joined Paradigm in 2015 as assistant to Joe Atamian, oversees Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, Black Pumas, Brett Dennen and Elizabeth Cook, among others.

Marker joined WME in 2018 as agent Brent Smith's booking assistant and continues to work with Smith on his roster.

Perez worked with agent Anthony DiStasio and set up partnerships with KAYTRANADA and Stella Artois as well as Toro Y Moi and Cartier.

Smith was previously at Warner Records, where she worked with Andra Day, Bebe Rexha, Dua Lipa, IDK, JoJo, Saweetie and Drake's OVO Sound.

Gherini comes from Live Nation, where she oversaw marketing on national tours for Halsey, The Lonely Island, AJR, Anderson.Paak, 21 Savage, Deftones and Daniel Caesar.

Posecion arrives from WME, where she executed campaigns for such artists as Duran Duran, Amos Lee and Claptone.

Congrats to all. Put the Cristal on Andy Adelewitz’s tab.
