Lauren Harman has been appointed president, film/TV licensing for Silo Music. A music industry vet of over 17 years, Harman will bring her sync expertise and the amalgamation of her many relationships in the music, film and advertising communities to Silo, where she will oversee creative pitching and A&R.
Harman began her career at Zync Music in 2005 and began signing indie bands such as Beach House and Grizzly Bear. She left Zync in 2009 to start an independent music licensing company called Lip Sync Music. There, she signed artists such as Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings and their Daptone Records, Passion Pit, Local Natives, Aloe Blacc, Dillon Francis, Cults, The Naked & Famous and many more.
After 10 years at Lip Sync, she sold it to music publisher Anthem Entertainment. She then went on to run the sync department for Mass Appeal Records (owned by Nas,) working with music by artists such as Run The Jewels, DJ Shadow and Pusha T. While there, she hired Silo to do film/TV remixes, leading to this gig.
