Fest Case Scenario: “I love you like I love country music” is not just the title line of Kane Brown’s current single, it’s also what some radio pros wish their managers would say to them. Okay, maybe not exactly, but in last night’s (8/1) Country Aircheck Weekly, managers weigh-in on the radio resignation covered last week, and many share the opinion that listening, offering real leadership and showing on-air talent respect are among the first steps to preventing additional attrition in the talent pool. Plus, CMA CEO Sarah Trahern and CMA Fest Exec. Prod. Robert Deaton spill the beans on why tomorrow night’s (8/3) television broadcast is not to be missed.
