Jones Upped To SVP @ BBR Music Group

• BBR Music Group has promoted Jay Jones to Senior Vice President of Publicity. His responsibilities include strategy and oversight of publicity campaigns for BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville’s recording artists across the label’s imprints, including Broken Bow Records, Stoney Creek Records, and Wheelhouse Records. Additionally, he directs corporate communications and messaging for all three imprints.

Jones will continue to report to BMG Nashville President, Jon Loba, who said, “Jay was the perfect addition to the BBR Music Group at the perfect time. His previous experience as both an independent publicist and working for the CMA served him well as the BBR Music Group transformed from a family-owned domestic Country label to a strong and diverse music entity with global reach. Jay’s track record of securing significant media and press speaks for itself and we look forward to he and his team continuing their strong role telling our artists’ stories.”

Jones was the first executive hire at BBR Music Group following its acquisition by BMG. Since joining the company as VP of Publicity Jones has led publicity campaigns for Blanco Brown, Jimmie Allen, Lindsay Ell and others. Jones previously served as Director of Media Relations at CMA, and he owned and operated Jay Jones Music, a PR and marketing company where his clients included The Beach Boys.
