Studio2Bee & Shomby Join Forces
• Nashville-based artist development firm Studio2Bee Entertainment announced a strategic alignment with John Shomby‘s Country Radio’s Coach, Inc.
“It’s a growth maneuver for both organizations that puts symbiotic missions under one roof,” explains Studio2Bee CEO Skip Bishop, who co-founded the company with fellow legend Butch Waugh in 2014. “We were using John’s expertise and services with our clients and decided to join forces. For decades we’ve been great friends with John. Besides being brilliant he’s darned fun to be around.” Bishop added, “John is a tsunami of creative, positive energy and a welcomed addition to our leadership team.”
Before launching Country Radio’s Coach, Inc., Shomby programmed multiple-format major market radio stations and most recently served in an executive programming position with Cumulus Nashville. Commenting on this mighty joining of forces, Shomby said, “It was a no-brainer to get involved with Skip, Butch, and the crew at Studio2Bee. They are super creative, forward-thinking and I really need to make up for all those years I was late on their music.”
Both firms will maintain their separate imprints yet share services, strategies, and staff.
