Lakeside Enhanced With Turner & Tyler
• Lakeside Entertainment Group’s Label Services division expands with the acquisition of two experienced industry pros who arrive equipped with a wealth of experience in radio, records, television, and content creation — label and video veteran Tracey Turner joins as Director of Marketing and Artist Development, and longtime radio programmer/air talent Eric Tyler will be focused on National Radio Promotion & Content Development.
Turner has been consulting for Lakeside Entertainment Group for the past three years and now brings her talents to this team in a more significant role. She began her career in the promotion and marketing department at Columbia Records, where she remained for over a decade, later transitioning to video promotion. Turner later spent five years at VH1 as part of its Creative Music Integration team, acting as an in-house music supervisor for 15+ shows, including their highest rated docu-series, Love & Hip Hop.
Tyler most recently did afternoon drive on Entercom Top 40 B96/Chicago until early 2020. Before that he spent a decade as APD/MD at KBKS/Seattle. Previous stops include WNKS/Charlotte, KHTT/Tulsa and KHTO/Springfield, MO. As the release notes, “Eric’s knowledge of radio along with his strong relationships and creative vision give Lakeside’s clients and artists a unique advantage in today’s competitive climate.”
Lakeside Founder Dan Pearson commented, “We are continuing to grow to meet the vision and needs of our artists, clients, and label partners. We are thrilled to bring on Eric and Tracey who I’ve known personally and worked with in various ways throughout my career. Both are extraordinary people, that bring their own unique perspective, and I know will be tremendous assets to our team.” Tracey Turner can now be contacted at Tracey@LakesideManagementGroup.com and Eric Tyler can be reached at Eric@LakesideEntertainmentGroup.com.
