L-Acoustics has announced industry veteran Bryan Bradley has joined the company as CEO Americas. The announcement jointly comes from worldwide L-Acoustics co-CEOs Laurent Vaissié and Hervé Guillaume, to whom Bradley reports.

Bradley now oversees all of the manufacturer’s North, Central and South American operations and will be sharing his time between the global hub in Westlake Village, California, and a new Americas operations and creative hub at Nashville Yards when it officially opens later this year.

Bradley recently spent six years serving as the president of Group One Limited, the New York-based U.S. distributor for DiGiCo, Calrec, Solid State Logic, Sound Devices and several other leading pro-audio and lighting manufacturers. Prior to that, he held multiple executive management positions at Harman, most recently as senior vice president and general manager of the Americas for Harman Professional Solutions, where he managed the retail, live performance, large venue, hospitality and enterprise channels for JBL Professional, AKG, AMX, Crown, dbx, Lexicon, Soundcraft and Martin, among other Harman brands, across the American continents.

Bradley has also held the role of COO for Alfred Music, the educational music publisher, as well as management positions with Guitar Center. He has been a songwriter/composer for television and film, including serving as the music director on The Young and the Restless. Bradley earned a BA from Colorado State University, as well as an MBA from California Lutheran University.

“L-Acoustics has experienced tremendous growth over the past five years in the Americas,” Vaissié said. “To lead this high performing team, we have conducted an extensive search over the past 18 months to find an outstanding executive who knows our industry, shares our vision and passion for great sound, and fits our culture of innovation and people first. Bryan’s experience, management philosophy, and successful track record were a natural fit for the role. We are excited to welcome him to the team and look forward to solidifying our leadership position in the Americas.”

“It’s no secret, ever since the introduction of V-DOSC in 1992, that L-Acoustics has long been raising the benchmark for the professional loudspeaker world, attracting many imitators,” Bradley said. “As the company now crosses into its fifth decade, I’m excited to help steer the brand here in the Americas and help our customers in the touring, integration, and studio communities explore exciting new ways to connect people through the art of sound.”
