Former UMG/Nashville Dir./Media Marketing Jodi Dawes has joined BMLG as VP/Publicity & Communications. "[Jodi's] laser-sharp acumen in the media world will not only enhance, but add a multiple to supercharging all things Big Machine," says Chairman/CEO Scott Borchetta. Adds Dawes, "It’s an honor to lead publicity efforts at BMLG at such an exciting time for this label, and for country music as a whole.” Dawes left UMGN earlier this month (CAT 2/11) after three-and-a-half years. Previous stops include SweetTalk Publicity and AristoMedia; reach her here.
