BURBANK (CelebrityAccess) – Tuff Morgan has been promoted by global independent publisher peermusic to Vice President of A&R.

Morgan brings with him to the role 15 years of music industry experience that includes work as a Gold-certified artist, producer, songwriter, manager, publisher, and A&R rep. He first joined peermusic in 2014 as Director of Pop & Urban Music, though he worked with the company in a consulting capacity before coming on full-time. Most recently he served as Senior Director of A&R.

His background as an artist and songwriter gives him the sensitivity and creativity to work well with the creativity community but that innate skill is coupled with a razor sharp and transparent business mind that gives our clients the information they need to make sound decisions about their careers. It’s an unbeatable combination.”

Morgan added: “I’m blessed to work with such an amazing and diverse group of songwriters. Every day I look forward to the opportunity of building something special and innovative with the peermusic family for the songwriters we work with.”
