London-based Exec to Work Across UK & US Teams to Sign & Develop Transatlantic Talent
Accomplished A&R leader Jeremy Vuernick has been named Executive Vice President, Atlantic Music Group (AMG), joining AMG’s global leadership team. In this new post, reporting jointly to AMG CEO Elliot Grainge and Atlantic UK Co-Presidents Ed Howard & Briony Turner, Vuernick will be based in London and work closely with the company’s UK and US teams to sign and develop artists with global potential.
Vuernick’s appointment follows the recent announcement elevating Ed Howard and Briony Turner to Atlantic Music Group’s global leadership team, a move designed to create tighter collaboration across the two territories, and to generate greater global impact for Atlantic’s world-class roster.
In 2024, Vuernick founded the Los Angeles-based independent company Queens Road Music in partnership with Atlantic. Prior to launching Queens Road Music, he spent over a decade as an executive at Capitol Music Group (CMG), most recently serving as President of A&R. While at CMG, Vuernick oversaw the company’s portfolio of labels, developing global superstar talent across genres.
Ed Howard and Briony Turner noted, “This is the next exciting step to further link our UK and US teams to super-serve our artists and their visions. With Jeremy’s impressive A&R track record and stellar relationships, he’ll be a fantastic addition to our team, as we work together to discover and elevate the next generation of global superstars.”
Elliot Grainge, CEO, AMG said, “I have worked with Jeremy for a number of years and I’m excited to officially welcome him into the AMG family. He comes to us with outstanding experience, instincts, and passion for artists, so he’ll be an ace addition to our newly aligned teams. Under the expert leadership of Ed and Briony, Atlantic UK has been a formidable source of chart-topping, game-changing artistry. With Jeremy now based in London, we are continuing to build our bridge across the ocean, ramping up our collective A&R and cultural firepower. ”
Jeremy Vuernick noted, “The UK has long been one of the most influential markets in the world and a cultural leader in developing and exporting exceptional global talent. With Elliot cementing the natural relationship between the UK and US, and Ed and Briony leading the charge as two of the best creative leaders in the business, our combined force will take Atlantic and its artists to a new level of recognition and success.”
Vuernick joined Capitol’s Astralwerks imprint in 2013, serving in senior capacities at the label and at the group’s flagship Capitol Records before being promoted to Executive Vice President of A&R for CMG in 2019. Before joining Astralwerks, Vuernick held senior roles at New York-based independent label Ultra Music, overseeing A&R, marketing, and sales.
