Nigel Grainge, brother of Universal Music CEO  Sir Lucian Grainge, has died in Los Angeles of post-operative complications. He was 70.

 

 

London born, Nigel Grainge ran his own record label, Ensign, signing The Boomtown Rats, Waterboys and Sinead O’Connor. After selling Ensign to Chrysalis, he remained in the music biz as a consultant.

 

Our sympathies to his family.
