Industry Ink (8/24/12)

August 24, 2012/by Caitlin Rantala

This Saturday (8/25) will mark a milestone for Lamon Records and the entire Moody Family as their indie record label will celebrate 50 years in the industry. The label will present a special anniversary show on the Midnight Jamboree, which follows the Grand Ole Opry on WSM 650 Radio in Nashville. Grammy nominated label president Dave Moody will host the show.

“It’s a real honor for us to celebrate our anniversary this way,” said Moody. “I have great memories of visiting Nashville when I was just an eight year old kid. The Midnight Jamboree was definitely a standout for me on that trip. In those days you could stand so close to the stage in the Ernest Tubb Record Shop you could almost touch the performers. I’ll never forget that experience and the impression it made on me as a kid.”

Moody, along with a few of his current label artists will perform on the show, including Bobby Dean, Courtney Stewart, Kimberly Patrick and Chris Berardo and the DesBerardos. Grand Ole Opry star George Hamilton IV will also be a guest on the show. Hamilton has spent the past 25 years or so recording albums for Lamon.
