Beggars label XL Recordings have added some new people to its international team. First Julia Willinger will join the indie’s international A&R team, based in New York, while Berlin-based Alex Waldren will work on both A&R and marketing projects on a consulting basis.
Confirming the appointments, XL MD Ben Beardsworth told CMU: “XL continues to expand internationally and we are keen to make sure that we have the right people in place to oversee and coordinate our activities. Julia and Alex come with a wealth of experience in this area and will add real value to the great work already been done by our international partners and licensees”.

It’s also been announced that all of the label’s press team will now service online and offline press, whereas previously the press department was split between web-based and print media.
