Lamb To VP: Dot Dir./National Promotion Kris Lamb has been upped to VP/Promotion. Lamb joined the label in May (Breaking News 5/9/14), having previously served as West Coast rep for Big Machine. “Kris always steps up to the plate with incredible passion, creativity, energy and execution," says BMLG President/CEO Scott Borchetta. "It's no surprise to me that his very first single as a National Director went straight to No. 1." Dot will celebrate the chart-topping ascension of Maddie & Tae's "Girl In A Country Song" later today.

"I'm honored and beyond grateful to extend my tenure with the mighty BMLG and Dot Records," Lamb says. "Scotty B and [Dot GM] Chris Stacey have provided the forum to continue Dot's pursuit of strategically differentiating our promotion efforts through innovative partnerships with a fresh perspective. Together, with our exceptional staff of promotion executives, Dot will continue to super-serve our incredible roster of artists and our friends and partners at Country radio."
