Glassnote-worthy Staff Enhancements
Glassnote Records has hired Jonathan Jacobs as National Director of Pop Promotion and promoted Grace Fryman to Northeast Regional Manager of Promotion. Jacobs got his music industry start as an assistant at Columbia Records in New York, and he spent the past nine years with Republic Records as a Regional Promotion Manager based in Miami. Now at Glassnote, his responsibilities will span across all pop formats. Fryman is a two-year Glassnote veteran, having most recently served as the Executive Assistant to Founder/President Daniel Glass.
Nick Petropoulos, Head of Glassnote National Radio Promotion, commented, “The Glassnote Promotion department has earned a reputation of working long term campaigns and breaking artists and records that challenge the mainstream, which can be seen right now with the multi-format success of Childish Gambino‘s No. 1 track, ‘Redbone.’ Our success is rooted in the collective talent, passion and tireless efforts of Michael Starr, Fred Shade, Greta Van Raam and Elliott Garstin. We are very excited to have Jonathan Jacobs join our team and help us continue to break new ground at all Pop formats. As a pre-existing member of the Glassnote team I have witnessed Grace Fryman’s drive and spirit, she is the next superstar and we are proud to have her working with us.”
Jacobs remarked, “I want to thank Nick and Daniel for this amazing opportunity to be a part of their team. The Glassnote tradition is rooted in creative spirit and energy and I look forward to working with all of their talented artists.” Fryman said, “I’m thrilled to join the Glassnote Radio Promo team at such an exciting time. I look forward to supporting the extraordinary artists on our roster, and working with our valued partners throughout the Northeast.”
