Disciple hires ex-EMI marketing exec
By Andy Malt | Published on Friday 28 March 2014
Music app developer Disciple Media has announced that it has hired Matthew Tilley as its new Executive Vice President of Business Development. Tilley was previously Senior Vice President of International Marketing at EMI Music.
Disciple founder Benji Vaughan told CMU: “Matthew is well known and respected among the artist and management community around the world, and bringing him onto the Disciple team will be hugely valuable as we start to show people how this technology can enable artists to create more engaging connections with fans via mobile devices”.
Matthew Tilley says: “Having worked with artists for the last seventeen years to help them engage with their fans across the world, joining a groundbreaking venture like Disciple which can help them create and monetise connections is a fantastic step for me. We’re already seeing huge excitement from the creative community about the potential for this technology, and I’m looking forward to spreading the word”.
Tilley will be involved in deal negotiation and artist outreach to gain customers for the paid subscription-based app platform.
