Recording Academy's longtime chief awards officer Bill Freimuth, as well as Lourdes Lopez and Lisa Farris, depart following restructuring
Butterfield Jones was initially hired as the Academy's first chief diversity, equity and inclusion officer in May 2020. Panay, who starts his new position Monday, most recently was senior vp of global strategy and innovation at Berklee College of Music.
Those changes, which many welcomed as the Academy continues to put an emphasis on diversity and inclusion, nonetheless left the organization top-heavy with a surfeit of high level executives, sources says. Mason and the trustees also eliminated the nominations review committees in late April, allowing Grammy voters to have the final say in non-craft categories.Mason also oversaw a round of layoffs last October that saw the departure of 13 staffers from the Recording Academy and its philanthropic arm, MusiCares.
Freimuth could not be reached, but his reply email states that he is no longer with the company. Farris and Lopez confirmed their departures, but declined to comment further.
