Lucas Romeo
Republic Records has promoted Lucas Romeo to vice president, Top 40 from his previous role of national director. The elevation was announced today (April 24) by Gary Spangler, executive vp at the label.
Romeo has been with Republic for four years -- he joined from Epic Records as Mid-Atlantic Regional. During his time at Republic, Romeo has been responsible for executing campaigns for The Weeknd, Taylor Swift, Post Malone, Ariana Grande, and Hailee Steinfeld. In his new role, Romeo will lead the Top 40 department along with Brett Dumler.
"Lucas has not only built some of the strongest relationships at the format, but he also has a natural instinct to chart unique paths for each individual project to succeed," said Spangler. "We look forward to Lucas leading our efforts at Top 40, and I’m proud to announce this well-deserved promotion."
Added Romeo, "It’s an honor to be charged with the task of taking the best Top 40 team in the business to an even higher standard. I’d like to thank Monte, Avery, Gary and the rest of the team at Republic for giving me the opportunity. In my opinion, Gary has cultivated one of the most progressive cultures in promotion and I plan to continue the mindset he has instilled."
Romeo will be based out of the company’s global headquarters in New York.
