Concord has promoted Jim Selby from Chief Revenue Officer to Chief Operating Officer, effective immediately.
His promotion follows the news of Glenn Barros’ departure from the company last month.
Selby will report directly to Concord CEO Scott Pascucci and will continue to be based in Nashville.
In this new role, Selby will oversee IT, rights optimization, repertoire management, royalty administration, licensing administration, D2C operations and distribution among other global strategic initiatives for Concord.
Selby joined Concord as General Manager of Concord Music Group, where he helped to develop an efficient shared services team for the growing recorded music area of Concord’s business.
He was soon elevated to Chief Revenue Officer where he oversaw the company’s strategic revenue collections as well as music technology investments.
Prior to Concord, Selby was SVP of ole Media Management (now Anthem Entertainment) and was CEO of Naxos of America for 16 years.
“Jim is an exceptional executive and we are fortunate to have him as a colleague.”

“Our rapid and diverse growth has required us to be adept at integration and persistent at revenue collection, and Jim has excelled at both. His broad skill set will be well-deployed in his new role.
“Congratulations to him on a very well-deserved promotion.”
“Our rapid growth in recent years has required much hard work and innovation and I am excited to be able to focus on sharpening our operating services to better serve our roster of artists, playwrights, composers and songwriters.”
