Sines, Sines, Everywhere, Sines
• Townsquare Media Inc. has officially named Brian Sinesas Market President and Chief Revenue Officer for the company’s Texarkana, TX cluster, which includes Country KKYR (Kicker 102.5), Top 40 KPWW (Power 95-9), Classic Rock KYGL (Eagle 106.3), Urban AC KMJI (Majic 93.3) and Gospel KOSI-AM.
Sines earns the transfer after five years as Director of Sales with Townsquare’s Cedar Rapids, IA group. He reports to Townsquare SVP Todd Lawley, who said, “I’ve worked with Brian over the past five years and watched him build Cedar Rapids into one of the top performing clusters at Townsquare. In fact, the Cedar Rapids market hasn’t missed a budget in three years and holds a dominant position with both their broadcast and digital performance. I’m confident that Brian will quickly build upon the high performing team that serves the community, our listeners and the clients of Texarkana. It’s extremely rewarding to again have the ability to promote from within the Company, which is a direct reflection to the level of talent we have at Townsquare.”
Erik Hellum, Townsquare COO, Local Media, commented, “Brian’s performance, combined with his passion for the industry and commitment to winning, makes him the right candidate to lead our Texarkana market. Texarkana had been handled by a Market President in another market, but given our ‘Local First’ focus we wanted to make sure that our talented team in Texarkana had a leader dedicated to helping them win in their market.”
Sines remarked, “I’m excited to join the team in Texarkana. Townsquare is fortunate to have such a long tenured team in place that truly cares about our clients, our listeners and super-serves the community. I look forward to working with the No. 1 media team in the market and starting a budget-busting streak of our own.” Prior to joining Townsquare, Sines held senior management positions at Clear Channel Radio in the Midwest and worked with University of Iowa sports properties through Learfield Sports.
