On the debut episode of our new 'Behind The Industry' series we chat with Rob Markus who is a partner and music agent at WME. In his role Markus oversees the music division’s Latin group and primarily focuses on international deals for WME artists. Markus’ clients include Depeche Mode, J Balvin, Faith No More, Incubus, Juanes, Kygo, Nine Inch Nails, Slash, and Toto, among others. Markus has been heavily involved with the international expansion of the Lollapalooza festival brand into Argentina, Brazil, and Chile. He joined the William Morris Agency in 2004, and transitioned to WME in 2009 following the agency’s merger with Endeavor. He previously ran EMI and Virgin Records in Hungary, and also set up EMI Music Publishing in Eastern Europe. Markus runs the Personal Appearance Trainee Program, and was named to various Billboard Power Players lists.
