“We’re so proud to have Brendon join us at Big Loud Texas,” said Lambert. “He is as passionate as we are about the Texas music scene and has knowledge that will benefit artists in so many ways. Randall remarked, “Not only does Brendon bring years of knowledge of the Texas music industry and culture to the table, but his legendary and respected musicianship has given him firsthand experience in touring and recording, and a deep understanding of what Texas music artists need in a record label. We are lucky to have him.”
Big Loud COO Austen Adams said of Anthony, “With his experience and vast knowledge on all things Texas music, he’s the perfect partner to help realize Jon and Miranda’s vision for this new venture. We are honored to be part of his story and excited to see what this next chapter brings.”
Anthony commented, “I’m very proud to join the amazing team at Big Loud and look forward to working with Miranda and Jon to create something truly special in Big Loud Texas. Being a part of growing and supporting the Texas music industry has been my focus for over 25 years, and I’m thrilled to continue that effort by joining Big Loud Texas.” [Image by Dani Brubaker]
