Let's Grow Girls:
Former Mercury Sr. Dir./Midwest Promotion Charlie Dean has joined 19th & Grand Records as Mgr./Midwest Regional Promotion, effective immediately. No official word, but she succeeds Suzanne Durham, who transitions to Quartz Hill as Dir./Promotion. “We’re thrilled to have someone of Charlie’s caliber join our 19th & Grand promotion team and assist in taking Tenille Arts and the label to the next level,” says VP/Promotion Jim Malito.

She will continue to be based in Minneapolis and can be reached at 612-718-4406 and here. Durham joined 1608 in 2016 and segued to Reviver shortly thereafter (CAT 8/10/16). Prior stops include Show Dog, DreamWorks and Universal Distribution. She's available at 615-828-9493.
