NASHVILLE (CelebrityAccess) – Core Entertainment has proudly announced the expansion of its artist management team by adding two new Day-to-Day Managers, Jackie Gomez and Brittani Johnson, who will work from the company’s Nashville office.
“We are thrilled to welcome Brittani and Jackie to The Core Entertainment as day-to-day managers,” said Chief Zaruk and Simon Tikhman, co-founders and CEOs of The Core Entertainment. “Their multifaceted backgrounds and impressive track records in the music industry make them the perfect fit for our team. We’re excited for them to bring their expertise to the company, where they will play a key role in helping take our developing artists to the next level.”
Gomez joins The Core Entertainment with an impressive background in entertainment and music management. Originally from Houston, Gomez’s passion for entertainment led her to earn a Radio-Television-Film degree from the University of Texas at Austin. Her career began in the Big Apple, where she gained valuable experience at the prestigious entertainment law firm, Grubman Shire Meiselas & Sacks, P.C. During her time there, she supported deals for A-List actors and musicians, fueling her desire to work in the music industry.
Her journey in music officially began under David Massey’s mentorship, where she played a pivotal role in relaunching and growing Arista Records. Most recently, Gomez served as Charlie Puth’s day-to-day manager at Friends at Work, where she also managed and worked as an A&R across a developing roster of artists. Gomez brings knowledge and experience to The Core Entertainment, which will be integral to her new role.
“I’m so excited to join The Core and start the next chapter of my career with a company dedicated to innovation and artist development. I can’t wait to contribute to the success of our talented roster and be part of this dynamic team,” said Gomez. “I am grateful to work under the leadership of Chief and Simon, two true leaders and trailblazers in the music industry, whose vision and guidance have shaped many successful careers.”
Johnson brings a diverse background and wealth of music industry experience to her new role at The Core Entertainment. Originally from Kearney, NE, Johnson moved to Nashville in 2017 to pursue her dream of working in the music industry. After gaining experience interning at Rebel Engine (now Big Sky Music Group), she joined Stephanie Quayle’s team, where she honed her skills and passion for artist management.
In 2019, Johnson joined Big Loud as a Promotion Coordinator and quickly advanced to Director of Southwest Promotion. As Director, she played a crucial role in championing artists such as Morgan Wallen, Ashley Cooke, HARDY, and Charles Wesley Godwin. Johnson’s expertise in artist development and her innovative approach to management will be invaluable to The Core Entertainment.
“I’m thrilled to join The Core team and work alongside Chief and Simon. Moving into management has been a goal of mine since the day I moved to town, and I’m honored to dive in and grow with this powerhouse company,” said Johnson.
