Downtown Music has appointed Molly Neuman as president of its “direct-to-creator” division, CD Baby. Neuman will work to expand CD Baby’s services, succeeding CD Baby’s previous president, Scott Williams, who will remain a consultant to Downtown and CD Baby.
In a post shared to linkedIn, Neuman said, “My ambitions for CD Baby are consistent with things I’ve spoken with many of you about before. We deserve an industry that gives opportunities to more than just those who have traditionally held centralized power and revenues. We need more genres, more genders, more geographies represented, and more stability for the future. We have to scale to meet the needs of the modern business, but keep our artists and their creativity at our center. I think we can do it.”
