The management shuffle is continuing at The Feldman Agency (TFA).

The Toronto-based talent agency has parted ways with Rob Segal, previously president of brands and partnerships.


Segal became a partner in the company in 2023 as part of an expansion to become a full-service entertainment company.

In 2024, Segal was named one of Billboard's International Power Players alongside CEO Jeff Craib. He cited his biggest achievements from that first year on the job as "shepherding the new business in owned and operated properties," licensing and branding opportunities for TFA's artists and launching the first season of The Bowl at Sobeys Stadium, the outdoor concert venue series that then "hit pause" in 2025.

This news comes less than two months after TFA announced a series of internal promotions. Veteran Joel Baskin was named senior vice president, Josie Cheng was named managing director-administration, Amy Lloyd was given a new role as talent buyer, Emma Leblanc took the reins as marketing associate and Jessie Silverstein was promoted to senior coordinator.

The appointments signalled TFA's increased "strategic focus on talent buying, artist support and operational innovation across its offices in Toronto and Vancouver," they said at the time.

When reached for comment, Craib confirms Segal's departure.

"While Rob Segal is no longer heading up partnerships, the exciting operational staff promotions we announced previously speak to TFA’s growth as a company," he tells Billboard Canada. "Our strong work with brands, artists and our properties in this space continues."

The Feldman Agency's talent roster includes major names like Shania Twain, Daniel Caesar, Snotty Nose Rez Kids, Josh Ross and Owen Riegling, plus non-music clients like All Elite Wrestling.

Craib and TFA president Tom Kemp were named to Billboard Canada's 2025 Power Players list, citing major tours for Alessia Cara, Mother Mother, Barenaked Ladies, Carly Rae Jepsen, Charlotte Cardin and more.

Oasis’ Noel Gallagher Breaks Silence in First Interview Since Reunion: ‘It’s Great Being Back in a Band With Liam’

The football-mad songwriter/singer called in to his favorite sports chat show on Tuesday (Aug. 19) to talk soccer and how he's feeling after winding up UK shows.

So far, Oasis have let the music do the talking. Liam and Noel Gallagher have just wound up the first round of UK and Irish dates on their sold-out Live ’25 tour and in a testament to the breathless enthusiasm that’s greeted their first round of shows in more than 16 years they’ve hardly had to talk up the dates at all.

In fact, until Tuesday (Aug. 19) neither brother had sat down for a proper interview about the shows at all. But Noel, who like his younger sibling singer Liam, is simply mad about football, called in to his favorite drive-time sports chat show, talkSPORT with Andy Goldstein and Darren Bent, to chat about Man City, and, of course, how things are going with the formerly battling brothers.
