ARISTA WELCOMES TIMURE & HESSION

Arista has appointed Sharon Timure head of marketing and Kelsey Hession publicity lead. Both are based in New York and will report to Arista President/CEO David Massey and General Manager Veronica Sanjines.

Timure, who worked in both tour and strategic marketing at Island Records for nearly 20 years, will oversee all marketing efforts for the label. Hession, who most recently headed up the publicity department at Glassnote Records, will focus on building Arista’s media awareness.

"Sharon brings an incredible prowess to developing artists with a progressive marketing strategy and Kelsey’s forward-thinking approach to media will be a driving force to build buzz around our roster.," Massey said.

In their new roles, Timure and Hession will work across the full Arista roster, including marquee artists such as Måneskin, JP Saxe and Tai Verdes as well as rising talent such as Lola Brooke and Paul Russell. As for us, we're working on finishing off these donuts.
