"Vinyl" showrunner Terence Winter is leaving after just one season over creative differences.

"Bourne Ultimatum" screenwriter Scott Z Burns is taking over and will also be executive producing the series with another new recruit, "Godzilla" writer Max Borenstein, reported Deadline.

"As we head into the second season of 'Vinyl', we have decided it is an appropriate time to make a change in the creative direction of the show," HBO said.

"We have enjoyed a longtime partnership with Terry Winter at HBO on projects from 'The Sopranos' to 'Boardwalk Empire' to 'Vinyl', and we look forward to our next collaboration with him.
 

"We are pleased to welcome Scott Z Burns, executive producer and showrunner, and Max Borenstein, executive producer, as the new team helming the show."

Set against the burgeoning hip-hop and punk scene of the late '70s, "Vinyl" stars Bobby Cannavale as a record executive struggling to save his label.

The large ensemble cast also features Olivia Wilde, Ray Romano, Paul Ben-Victor, Juno Temple and Andrew Dice Clay.

The Mick Jagger and Martin Scorsese-produced rock 'n' roll drama was renewed for a second season just days after it received its US premiere.
