Landman Upped To SVP, A&R, Warner Chappell
• Warner Chappell Music (WCM) has promoted leading music executive Gabz Landman to Senior Vice President, A&R.
Landman has spent more than a decade helping build the careers of songwriters, producers, and artists from the ground up. In the past few years alone, she has curated a diverse roster, including Laufey, The Chainsmokers, John Ryan, Kenya Grace, and Amy Allen — who recently won the 2025 Grammy Award for Songwriter of the Year.
Based in Los Angeles and reporting to Ryan Press, President of North America at WCM, Landman will continue to sign and develop top talent as well as lead high-profile sessions. Press said, “Gabz is one of the most talented, passionate, and driven A&R leaders out there. Her relentless ambition, combined with her thoughtful and intentional approach to nurturing and developing songwriters, truly sets her apart.”
Landman commented, “I have so much gratitude for Warner Chappell. Ryan, Guy, Carianne, and the entire team have continuously supported and empowered me, and I’ve had the privilege of working with the best colleagues and creators in the business, who have become like family. The songwriter and producer community have always had my heart, and being in a position to advocate for them every day and elevate their careers is a dream come true. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to continue to do what I love.”
Prior to joining WCM in 2022, Landman served as VP of A&R at Warner Records and Creative Director at TAP Management, where she helped develop Dua Lipa, earning her a spot on Forbes’ 30 Under 30 Music list in 2020. [Photo courtesy of WCM]
