CO5 Adds New Regional

CO5 Nashville VP Promotion David Newmark has announced the hire of Weslea Neas to the position of Director of Promotion, SW/MW region.

“I met Weslea when she was in radio and was instantly aware of her love for music and the Country format,” says Newmark. “Weslea built her reputation quickly as one of radio’s best and brightest. She was a great communicator at radio and continued to do so when she made the switch to promotion. We are excited about the opportunity to have her on our team.”

Neas’ career began in radio with WBEE/Rochester, NY, where she took on Music Director responsibilities and filling a midday air shift, before being promoted to Assistant Program Director. In 2009, she joined Republic Nashville and was part of the team that helped break The Band Perry and their No. 1 “If I Die Young.”
