CRUSH CRUSADERS

Some key moves have been made over at Crush Music, where Gaby Fainsilber has been promoted to Head of Digital Marketing and Alisann Blood has been hired as Head of Brand Partnerships (following the announcement of the company's JV deal with WMG).

Fainsilber has been instrumental in Crush's growth over the last 10 years or so, leading digital marketing efforts for acts like Sia, Weezer, Panic! at the Disco, Fall Out Boy and more.

She will continue to report to Crush Music CMO Dan Kruchkow, who says, "Gaby’s tireless efforts have brought Crush to the bleeding edge of technology and have helped our artists become leaders in the space."

Blood, however, most recently served as VP Brand Partnerships at Capitol Music Group, where she was responsible for forming an array of brand opportunities for the likes of Tori Kelly, Sam Smith, Beck and Bastille.

“We couldn’t be happier to have such a well connected and respected brand executive at Crush to round out our first class marketing team,” shared Kruchkow.

We're sure he could be happier if the news of his team members' accomplishments wasn't covered by HITS, though.
