AEG Presents Names Jay Belin As VP Of International Touring

NEW YORK (CelebrityAccess) — Concert promotion and artist development company AEG Presents announced the appointment of Jay Belin to the role of Vice President of International Touring.

A veteran talent booker with almost two decades of experience in the live music industry, Belin will take point on for AEG Presents Global Touring division on major shows across Europe.

In his new role at AEG Presents, Belin will be initially based in the company’s New York office before eventually relocating to AEG Europe’s London headquarters.

He will report directly to AEG Presents’ Senior Vice Presidents of Global Touring Michael Harrison and Simon Jones.

“AEG Presents is an artist-first organization and that is something you can’t fake,” says Belin. “In a world where authenticity still counts for something, Rich’s vision and the team executing it embody that spirit. We all arrived at AEG through a shared love of live music and being a conduit to help artists bring that experience to their fans is an irreplaceable feeling.”

Belin began his career booking shows at the Mercury Lounge for The Bowery Presents before joining Live Nation as a senior talent buyer. He then spent ten years at the global talent agency WME, where he oversaw domestic and international tours from the agency’s offices in New York and London.

“Jay has been a close friend for many years and I’m so excited for him to join our team as our focus on global growth continues. His background in live music touches almost every single part of the ecosystem, which gives him invaluable insight into artist relations and where our business is headed. I expect Jay will quickly become an important asset to our touring artists and promoters around the globe.”
