Chuck Yeah: EMI Nashville Dir./Midwest  & Southwest Promotion Chuck Swaney has accepted an in-house position with Southern Ground Records. Swaney will be based at Southern Ground's new Nashville location starting July 16. The move reunites him with the Zac Brown Band, with whom he worked during his 2008 to 2010 tenure at Bigger Picture, prior to his shift to EMI Nashville (CAT 3/30/2010). "I had a great West End experience and will miss everyone at Capitol and EMI Nashville dearly," Swaney tells Country Aircheck. Congratulate him here through July 15. Capitol & EMI Nashville SVP/Promotion Steve Hodges tells us that plans for the open regional position will be announced soon.
