October 6, 2010/by Sarah Skates

Black River Entertainment has added Gordon S. Kerr as Chief Operating Officer. The New York state native will oversee all leadership functions and business affairs of Black River Entertainment and its subsidiaries which include Black River Music Group, Black River Publishing, Black River On-Line, Ronnie’s Place Studio and the newly acquired Sound Stage Studios. His background is in corporate and educational administration.

“I am humbled to be a part of such an outstanding organization,” says Kerr. “It is the desire of Black River Entertainment to demonstrate a healthy respect for the past, to recognize and understand the present and then through incredible teamwork and some unbelievable creativity, demonstrate a collective vision for our future!”

Kerr will report directly to Terry and Kim Pegula, owners of Black River’s parent company East Resources, Inc. He plans to divide his time between Nashville and Orchard Park, NY.

    I am so glad to see that Black River is wanting to work WITH the music community here in Nashville. We don’t need another big business coming in here and trying to take over. It is very apparent by Kerr’s comments that he is a team player and seems like a well respected leader. Welcome!
