David Cox

Few are tapped into urban music and culture as thoroughly and deeply as David Cox. His background in A&R, street marketing, concert promotions, retail, radio and artist management, as well as his infamous ear that's tuned into whatever the streets and the masses consider hot at the moment, make him a highly valuable player. This "ear" has served David particularly well over the past 2 years, as he scouts talent and oversees artists' projects as an A&R Rep with Universal Music Canada. Happily putting in 70-80 hours a week, he's the man you'll always see out and about - talking to DJs in nightclubs, checking out new talent at concerts and talking to music fans on the street. Known as one of the most approachable and helpful industry cats, David has also worked as a concert promoter with REMG, co-owner of indie label Classic Entertainment and National Street Marketing Rep for BMG Music Canada, promoting artists like Rascalz, Pink, P.Diddy and the Dave Matthews Band. Through it all, he continues to understand artist's perspective, having spent time on that side, racking up Juno Award nominations and a MuchMusic Video Award.
