Severance Names Provost As Marketing Mgr.

Severance Records, the independent, Nashville-based modern rock label, a division of Big Loud Rock, announced the appointment of Trevor Provost as its new Marketing Manager. In this pivotal role, Provost will spearhead the label’s marketing strategy and execution, reporting to Mike Easterlin, Co-President of Severance Records.

Provost joins from SMACKSongs, where he served most recently as a Day-to-Day Manager in their management department. Prior to that, Provost started his career at experiential marketing agency, REACH, while also signing his first artist management client, The Bundys. In July 2023, Provost started Blinders Entertainment to focus on his own management and consulting ventures.

Provost commented, “I’m really excited to be joining Stevo & Mike at Severance Records in everything they’re building. The opportunity to learn and work so closely with two hyper-skilled executives — and businessmen who do it in the right way — is a dream.”

He added, “Our perspective on the value and attention that a label must bring to an artist in 2024 was so aligned that it felt like the perfect fit. With the highest caliber partner in Big Loud, I’m looking forward to developing culturally significant acts and deep relationships with the fans.”

Easterlin remarked, “Stevo and I met Trevor as Severance Records was forming, and knew instantly he was the right person to help us build our new label. Trevor is a creative force with real business savvy and sensibilities. We’re excited for him to join us as we take this venture to the next level.” [Photo Credit: Brayln Kelly]
