Monumental Moves: Noblit & Karliak

• Monument Records announces the acquisition of two new promo pros: Glenn Noblit joins as Director, Regional Promotion and Claire Karliak is named Manager, Digital Marketing & Streaming.

Noblit (left) comes to Monument with over two decades of radio promotion experience, the last five years as Director, National Promotion at Garth Brooks‘ Pearl Records. Noblit has also worked for Studio2Bee, Warner Bros. Records, Lost Highway Records, AristoMedia, and Reviver Records. In his new Monument spot, Noblit will be working with the entire label roster, including Walker Hayes and Caitlyn Smith.

Monument VP of Promotion Luke Jensen commented, “Having worked closely with Glenn during my radio days, and side by side with him my first several years in promotion, I know firsthand how lucky our Monument family is to have a professional of his caliber join our team.” Noblit said, “I’ve enjoyed watching the rise of Monument from afar. The artists are unique and compelling, the team is second to none, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to now have a seat at the table as Monument continues to deliver hits and break great artists.”

Karliak (right) is a Belmont University graduate who most recently headed up the Label Services team at Big Yellow Dog Music. At Monument, Karliak will be responsible for the label’s digital marketing, which includes everything from fan engagement to social media to working with DSP partners. “We are so excited to have Claire in this role,” said Monument GM Katie McCartney. “She comes with a fresh perspective on how to reach fans, and an enthusiasm for what we have built here at Monument, and where we can go. She will be a great addition to this team.” Noblit can now be reached at glenn.noblit@sonymusic.com and Karliak can be contacted at claire.karliak@sonymusic.com.
