Early Life
Guy Oseary was born on October 3, 1972 in Jerusalem, Israel to a Jewish family. He was raised in California in the Los Angeles area, and went to Beverly Hills High School.
Maverick
Oseary began his career at the age of 17, working as an independent A&R representative. A couple years later, he became one of the first people to join Maverick, an entertainment company founded by Madonna, Veronica Dashev, and Frederick DeMann. He started out at the company’s label Maverick Records as an A&R executive; in 1998, after DeMann was bought out for $20 million, Oseary increased his stake and took over as CEO and chairman. The label released albums by a number of major artists, including Michelle Branch, Tyler Hilton, Muse, Deftones, the Prodigy, No Authority, and Erasure. Its biggest commercial success was with Alanis Morissette’s 1995 album “Jagged Little Pill,” which sold over 33 million units worldwide.
Through the Maverick Films division, Oseary served as executive producer on Rob Zombie‘s “House of 1000 Corpses” and “The Devil’s Rejects,” as well as on four of the films in the “Twilight” franchise. He also executive produced NBC’s “Last Call with Carson Daly” and “New Year’s Eve with Carson Daly.” However, due to financial struggles, Maverick began declining. In 2004, the record label and Madonna filed suit against Warner Music Group for alleged mismanagement of resources and poor bookkeeping. Madonna and Dashev were ultimately exiled from the company when it became a fully owned subsidiary of Warner Music Group. Oseary retained his position until Warner bought his shares in 2006; the label folded three years later. He officially parted ways with Maverick in March of 2020.
Untitled Entertainment and Talent Management
In 2004, Oseary partnered with Stephanie Simon and Jason Weinberg to become a principal in the management company Untitled Entertainment. The following year, he became the manager of his business partner Madonna, and helped guide her through her highly lucrative concert tours from 2006 to 2012. During this time, Oseary twice won the award for Top Manager at the Billboard Touring Awards.
Oseary landed one of his biggest deals in 2013, when he replaced Paul McGuinness as the manager of U2. The $30 million deal included the purchasing of both Maverick and U2’s management company Principle Management by Live Nation Entertainment. Among his other major clients, Oseary manages comedian and actress Amy Schumer and the rock band the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
