Return To Base: As noted above, Pearl regional Nathan Cruise has rejoined In2une for Southeast/Midwest region duties roughly four months after his departure (CAT 9/29). Blake Nixon, who joined in January to fill the open position, remains in his role. Prior stops for Cruise include Curb, Show Dog, WAR, Stroudavarious, Universal South and Arista. "We jumped at the opportunity the minute we heard he resigned," says VP/Promotion Jamice Jennings. "We truly feel he is an integral part of the growth of West End/In2une and the future growth of our artists." West End, incidentally, is a partnership with New York's Warner/ADA to be announced soon. Reach Cruise here.
