Universal Music UK has promoted Sally Davis to the role of Managing Director at its live entertainment division. You did remember Universal Music had a concert promoting division, right? It’s called U-Live and Davis has been its COO since it launched in 2012.

Says Universal Music UK CEO David Joseph: “There’s clear potential for U-Live to continue to grow and innovate. Sally, a highly respected and creative executive who knows the live business inside out, is the person to take the company to the next level after its strong start in a very competitive sector”.

Davis adds: “I feel very privileged to be leading our live division at such an exciting, pivotal time. We will benefit greatly from working closely with David’s team as we move forward with Universal Music’s live interests, delivering the projects already in our portfolio as well as exploring new opportunities”.

Prior to joining Universal, among other roles Davis worked for AEG as Events Director and Assistant General Manager at The O2.
