John Marks is leaving his position as Global Director of Country Music at Spotify.
Marks joined Spotify in 2015, overseeing all things country for the Nashville, United States and Global music curation/programming and growing country globally for Spotify. Marks spent most of his career in programming and operations in terrestrial radio. He moved to Nashville over ten years ago to work at SiriusXM.
“It has been a privilege to work at Spotify since the beginning of its Nashville journey,” says Marks. “But I am also excited about what adventures lie ahead. I want to thank Jeremy Erlich, Rachel Whitney, our editorial team and the entire Spotify crew for the work that we have accomplished both in the United States and internationally.”
“When John Marks joined Spotify, he brought a wealth of knowledge and passion for the country genre—and has been an incredible asset to the Nashville team,” says Erlich, co-head of Music, Spotify. “John will be truly missed and we wish him well.”
