Stripes Look Nice On Beard & Vaughn

Miles Beard and Jeff Vaughn have been promoted to Vice Presidents of A&R at Artist Partner Group/Artist Publishing Group (APG). Artist Partner Group was launched in 2013 as a sister company to Artist Publishing Group. Since then, Beard (left) and Vaughn (right) have signed and/or worked closely with such artists as Charlie Puth, Kevin Gates, Young Thug, Kehlani, David Guetta, Flo Rida, Jason Derulo and many others. The guys are based in Los Angeles and report to APG Founder & CEO Mike Caren, who said, “Miles and Jeff have developed into musical experts with an incredible work ethic. They’ve both been with me since before we started Artist Partner Group four years ago, and they’ve been essential players in our explosive success — from signing amazing artists to making fantastic records. Our mission at APG is to provide the most creative, nurturing environment for the next generation of stars — artists, songwriters, producers, and A&R execs alike.”

Artist Publishing Group GM Angie Pagano added, “Miles and Jeff have superb musical instincts and the ability to turn those instincts into hits. We’re very happy to announce these well-deserved promotions for two of the brightest young lights in our business.”
