Butters Joins Concord As VP/Sync

• Concord has hired Chase Butters as Vice President of Sync for Concord Music Publishing. Based in Concord’s Los Angeles office, Butters will lead a team focused on increasing and enhancing Concord’s sync placements in advertising, reporting to SVP of Sync, Brooke Primont, who remarked, “I’m very excited to have Chase on the team. He has the knowledge and industry relationships to significantly grow our business. Our catalog continues to grow, and it’s vital that we have people like Chase who understand the complex mechanics, but also have a deep appreciation for the music, our songwriters and their legacies.”

Having worked on global music partnership projects with major brands such as Target, Hulu, Volkswagen and Nintendo, Butters brings to Concord a deep knowledge of branding, marketing and pitching copyright assets.

A graduate of the Musicians Institute in Los Angeles, Butters previously worked on commercial sync and brand partnerships projects at Warner Records, oversaw music licensing at ad agency Deutsch LA and ran a boutique recording studio.

“It’s a privilege to work for Concord and its repertoire comprising over 600,000 copyrights,” said Butters. “Sync not only has the capacity to generate revenue for our songwriters or their estate, but also can introduce a song to an entirely new audience. I’m excited to begin this new chapter.”
