Morrissey has split with artist management firm ie: music after just three months.

An ie: music spokesman confirmed that it had parted company with the ex-Smiths frontman, but declined to give any details.

Billboard.biz understands the management firm, headed up by Tim Clark and David Enthoven, will hold a meeting at its London office this afternoon (Sept. 1) before issuing an official statement on the matter.

Morrissey joined ie:music in May (Billboard.biz, May 27), following his split with previous manager Merck Mercuriadis, ex-CEO of the now defunct music company Sanctuary U.S.

Other acts managed by ie:music include Robbie Williams, plus Passenger, Craig Armstrong and Sia.
