Our Founders

Eduardo del Pilar

Co-CEO

With over 17 years of experience in the recording industry, I have had the privilege of working across multiple facets of the business — from producing and engineering to serving as an A&R and business developer for industry leaders such as Ingrooves and Virgin Music Group. My journey has also included managing top Latin urban performers, where I have gained invaluable insights into the evolving music landscape. This experience has shaped my approach to music catalog acquisitions, blending creativity with strategic business acumen to deliver sustainable growth and value. I am honored to bring this perspective to Encore Music Capital as we aim to build a portfolio that respects artistry while offering strong returns for our investors.
