Longtime agent Lee Anderson has been named president of Wasserman Music, the company announced Monday (June 3). Anderson was a founding member of Wasserman Music’s executive team when the agency purchased Paradigm’s music division in 2021.
Since playing a pivotal role in establishing Wasserman Music, Anderson has helped develop the company’s business strategy and growth plans, leading the staff to triple in size while expanding its global footprint and artist services offerings.
“From day one, we’ve built Wasserman Music on two core principles: to be the best place to work and the best place for artists to be represented,” said Anderson in a release. “I’m honored to accept this new role, but my mission remains the same: to work closely with my colleagues on our executive leadership team to ensure that we remain true to our vision and consistently deliver the best results for our clients and our global team.”
Prior to Wasserman Music, Anderson served as a vp at the agency A.M. Only, which was acquired by Paradigm in 2017. At Paradigm, Anderson was named to the company’s leadership team in 2021.
“As our music business has continued to grow and expand, Lee has taken on an increasing number of leadership responsibilities and has been instrumental in shaping the foundation of Wasserman Music and charting a path for even broader global success,” said Wasserman chairman/CEO Casey Wasserman.
In addition to his duties as president, Anderson represents such artists as Cautious Clay, Charlotte de Witte, David Guetta, Disclosure, ISOxo, Kenny Beats, Knock2, Oliver Tree, Skrillex, Swedish House Mafia and Zedd at the agency.
