President of Cold River Records, Pete O’Heeron, has announced today (Aug. 20) that industry veteran Bill Heltemes will join the label full-time as Midwest Regional, effective immediately. Long time regional Wayne Manning exits.

“Wayne has been a committed and passionate advocate for Katie Armiger’s music and we will miss him very much,” commented O’Heeron. “We are excited for the addition of Bill, not only because he has a great mustache, but because he has enormous passion and strong relationships in radio.”

In addition to radio promotion changes, Cold River Records has hired LOUDMOUTHpr’s Karen Tallier for publicity services.  “We have been trying to get Karen into our camp for a few years and we’re excited the timing was right to join forces,” stated O’Heeron.
Effective immediately, all media inquires will be directed to Tallier at karen@myloudmouth.com.
Manning can be reached at imaviator@yahoo.com or call 801-361-2993. To congratulate Bill Heltemes, contact him at bill@coldriverrecords.com or call 859-653-1345.
