Dan Waite and Steve Kline promoted at Better Noise Music
By Chris Cooke | Published on Friday 19 May 2023
Better Noise Music has announced some promotions at the top of the company, with London-based Dan Waite becoming CEO and New York-based Steve Kline adding the title of President to his existing role as COO. Meanwhile founder Allen Kovac becomes Chairman.
Of the changes, Kovac says that “Dan and Steve step up” at a time when the company has been the “number one mainstream rock label for five years in a row, is the number one Billboard hard rock imprint and is continuing to grow our international cumulative sales through our global offices”.
Waite adds: “In this new role I’ll aim to maximise the careers and album consumption of our signed acts … as we grow the label, expanding through new signings, opening up new markets and working closely with the amazing specialists that we have in each department at Better Noise which has kept us [the] number one rock label for the last five years.”
And Kline says: “I want to thank Allen for putting his faith in me, as he has over the past nineteen years, in this enhanced role at Better Noise. I am incredibly excited to work with Allen and Dan in leading our amazing global team to future success”.
