Bryan Ferry Partners With Irving Azoff’s Iconic Artists; Company Acquires 50% of Roxy Music Frontman’s Catalog
Veteran singer and Roxy Music frontman Bryan Ferry partnered with Irving Azoff’s Iconic Artists, with the company acquiring 50% of his music catalog.
“Bryan’s unique voice and genre-defying music have earned him a place among the most influential artists of our time,” said Beth Collins, co-president of the Azoff Company. Born in 1945 in County Durham in northern England, Ferry studied fine art at Newcastle University, which profoundly influenced his vision for Roxy Music. The group rode the early 1970s glam wave to popularity but soon proved themselves to be something else entirely, with Ferry’s esoteric and multi-genre songs brought to life by the fiery and unusual band including saxophonist Andy Mackay, guitarist Phil Manzanera, drummer Paul Thompson and, crucially, sound-doctor Brian Eno.
