Benken Joins Quarterback Records

Quarterback Records has hired Tony Benken as Vice President, Promotion. Effective immediately, Benken will oversee label contact with medium and major market radio.
“This is another strong step for the growth and capability of Quarterback,” says label co-principal John Ettinger. “Tony brings a terrific skill set in promotion, and carries a wonderful reputation.  He is smart, caring, and has the kind of radio-relation integrity we want at the label.”
“I couldn’t be more excited to get going with this Quarterback team,” adds Benken. “They do everything with energy and integrity, and I can’t wait to bring the same spirit out to my friends in country radio.”
Benken was most recently VP Promotion at Treehouse Records and his 18 years of experience have included stops at BNA, RCA, Virgin, Universal South and Broken Bow. Reach him at 615-478-9056 or tonybenken@quarterbackrecords.com
