Warner/Chappell has boosted the dance music credentials of its UK A&R team by hiring Anne Wester from Boiler Room TV to be an A&R Manager. Wester brings her media and club promotions background to the Warner music publisher, having also previously worked in a digital role at Universal in Sweden.

Says her new boss, Warner/Chappell UK MD Mike Smith: “It’s our mission to provide best-in-class service to our songwriters, and that means having the best people in every genre on our team. Anna’s fantastic knowledge and deep experience in the electronic and dance arena make her a tremendous addition to our A&R crew. Great songs are at the heart of the best dance music, and the UK is home to some of the greatest artists working in the field today, so I’m delighted to welcome Anna into the Warner/Chappell family”.

Wester herself adds: “Warner/Chappell has a reputation for exceptional devotion to its songwriters and producers, and I’m THRILLED to come on board as the company expands its commitment to the electronic and dance community. I’m looking forward to helping Warner/Chappell provide a great home for the most creative and inspired talent from across the globe. I want to thank Mike for this wonderful opportunity”.
