It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of Clive Davis.
Clive was a legendary figure in our industry and an important part of Sony Music’s history. His instinct for artists and his ability to shape music across genres helped define generations—and left an enduring mark on our company and the broader music community.
Many of you have had the opportunity to work with Clive over the years, and his passion for music and commitment to artists will be remembered by all who knew him.
We will miss him deeply and extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and everyone whose lives and careers he touched.
“Clive of course played a seminal role in the story of Sony Music through two incredible chapters and he is responsible for a huge part of the recorded legacy of the company permanently. Not only are many many artists we represent continuously indebted to his service but so many staff members have been influenced and mentored by his deep love and respect for our company which he carried right up until today. Our working lives are better for having had his constant presence in the aura and perception of Sony Music.”- Rob Stringer, Chairman, Sony Music Group
