Partner Trio among Billboard’s 2023 Top Business Managers

We are delighted to reveal that three of our partners have been named among Billboard’s 2023 Top Business Managers – an influential annual list that highlights the work of leading financial advisors within the music industry.

Charles Bradbrook, Janice Lloyd and Steve Wren are among the select list of business managers who have been identified from firms which guide the finances of some of the most successful artists in the industry.

Grant Court, Partner at SRLV, said: “On behalf of everyone at SRLV, I’d like to congratulate Charles, Janice and Steve on being recognised among Billboard’s 2023 Top Business Managers.  It’s a reflection of how highly they are thought of and valued by our clients, colleagues and peers, and is a fitting tribute to the commitment and dedication they’ve shown through their work to the music industry over many years.”

Commenting on the news, Steve Wren, said: “Charles, Janice and I would like to thank Billboard, along with all our clients, colleagues and industry peers who took the time to nominate us.  We feel honoured to be named among Billboard’s 2023 Top Business Managers and are truly grateful for everyone’s support.”

“It’s been an extremely positive year for everyone at SRLV, which has seen our team expand by 30% to 160 employees and 20 partners,” Janice Lloyd added.

“Much of this has been driven by our clients who’ve been busier than ever with major international tours, album releases and other projects, whilst our royalties team has seen a marked increase in the number of catalogue valuations over this period.  Earlier this year, we also welcomed music industry stalwart Joan Hudson and her ten-strong team, who joined SRLV, along with their high-profile roster of music and entertainment clients,” she said.
