Big Machine Label Group wrapped up Country Radio Seminar (CRS) week with a luncheon at the Omni hotel in downtown Nashville on Wednesday (3/15). Several country radio and industry executives were treated to performances by Brantley Gilbert, Justin Moore, Chris Janson, Riley Green, Danielle Bradbery, Conner Smith, Shane Profitt and Mackenzie Carpenter.
BMLG Chairman/CEO Scott Borchetta invited BMLG Records President/CEO Jimmy Harnen, The Valory Music Co. President George Briner and Big Machine Records GM Clay Hunnicutt to join the festivities. During the event, Borchetta and Briner surprised Smith with a RIAA gold plaque for “Take It Slow,” which has achieved more than 500k sales and streaming units to date.
