Jason Dauman

Born in Manhattan, Jason Dauman is a cousin of former Viacom CEO Phillipe Dauman. His father, Sidney Dauman, was the founder of Dauman Displays, a prominent point-of-purchase display manufacturer serving clients like Revlon, Gillette, and Anheuser-Busch.

With a career spanning over thirty years in the music business, Jason Dauman has held diverse roles including record executive, song placer, music supervisor, publisher, marketer, promoter, and currently serves as CEO of Dauman Music.

Dauman articulates his approach to business as follows:

His professional experience encompasses independent ventures as well as positions at Universal Music Group. Throughout his career, he has represented high-profile artists such as U2, Bruce Springsteen, Burt Bacharach, Carole Bayer Sager, and Billy Steinberg.

Early in his career, Dauman played a pivotal role in facilitating collaborations between Albert Hammond and Diane Warren that resulted in hit songs like "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" by Starship and "Don't Turn Around" by Ace of Base. Additionally, he placed Billboard No. 1 hits including "I Don't Have the Heart" with James Ingram and "I'll Stand by You" with The Pretenders—both later covered by major artists such as Carrie Underwood and Rod Stewart.

His successful placement of "Falling into You" for Celine Dion became the title track of her Grammy Award-winning album.

Since its inception in 2007, Dauman Music has accumulated more than 75 singles that have charted and established a significant presence on the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart. In 2019, it was recognized by Billboard as the No. 5 Dance Imprint Label and No. 8 Dance Record Label of the Year, propelled by chart-topping singles like Kendra Erika's "Self Control" and Hilary Roberts' "Back to Life."
