Music and entertainment company EP Entertainment has launched a Latin music division and appointed Angel Zamora as Managing Director.
Zamora was most recently Music Producer for the Latin American Music Awards and has previously held executive positions in talent relations, production and management at NBC/Universal and BMG.
He also currently serves as a Board Governor for the Florida Chapter of the Recording Academy.
In this newly created role based in Miami, Zamora will be responsible for developing EP Latin’s entertainment roster as well as generating revenue, cross-genre and language opportunities for its existing clients.
EP is home to 2018 Best New Artist GRAMMY winner Alessia Cara, multi-award winning songwriter Sebastian Kole, and artist Dylan Hyde, amongst others.
The company was created in 2011 by Robert “Robeo” Eleazer and Tony Perez to whom Zamora reports alongside EVP of Business Development and Strategy, Gary Sipich.
“When we met Angel, we realized he was the ideal person to create and execute the company’s Latin entertainment strategy,” said Eleazer.
“We want to create diverse opportunities for our roster in all of the Americas and we know that Angel’s longstanding contacts, experience and strategy drives results.”
