Scott Robinson, CEO/Co-Founder of Dualtone, said of Kampa, “Lori is an irreplaceable part of our company’s DNA. In the past year she has established Mt. Joy as the breakout band for Triple A with a No. 1 and a top 5 single and just delivered another No. 1 at Modern Rock and Triple A for The Lumineers‘ ‘Gloria.’ No one does it better.”
Speaking of Elledge and Luscinski, Dualtone President Paul Roper said, “Whitaker has very quickly added incredible value to our marketing and digital campaigns. His instincts are on point and he continually helps set Dualtone apart with his approach to advertising and creative problem solving. With Joey, we sleep well at night knowing he is managing all our production assets and deadlines. In his 14 years we have never missed a street date and always have vinyl day and date with CD. His commitment to excellence and detail can never be appreciated enough.” All three are based in Nashville and report to Robinson and Roper.
