Donald Announces Departure From Kobalt
“Alison’s fervor for creativity and music have always been felt throughout the entire organization, inspiring our teams every day,” said Kobalt President, Jeannette Perez. “Her palpable energy and enthusiasm will be missed by everyone at Kobalt. We wish her all of the best as she embarks on her next journey.”
Donald joined Kobalt in 2017, overseeing A&R and creative in the UK and Europe for Kobalt Music Publishing and AWAL’s UK and Europe creative teams. In March 2023, she was promoted to her current role, dividing her time between London and Los Angeles. Prior to Kobalt, Donald was Co-President of Columbia Records UK, where she signed and worked closely with George Ezra, Tom Odell, Rag’N’Bone Man, Declan Mckenna, and The Civil Wars.
“Working with the team at Kobalt and all of the incredible artists and writers on the roster has been very rewarding, and I’m extremely proud of what we’ve all achieved,” said Donald. “I’m sad to be leaving both my friends at Kobalt and our wonderful roster, but I’m looking forward to the next chapter.” [Photo by Beth Crockatt]
