List Reveals ‘Billboard’ Top Music Power Players for TV

September 17, 2015/by Eric T. Parker

BillboardBillboard released its first-ever TV’s Top Music Power Players list today (Sept. 17), and many included are Nashville-affiliated.

“As recorded-music sales continue to sputter, the impact of a high-profile TV spot has never been greater,” notes the Billboard staff in the announcement. “From halftime shows to primetime synchs, these executives, showrunners, bookers and supervisors can make — or break — an artist’s song and career.”

Among the talent are the ACM Award show’s Bob Romeo (CEO, Academy of Country Music) and R.A. Clark (Executive producer, Academy of Country Music Awards), as well as CMA Award show’s Robert Deaton (Executive producer, Country Music Association Awards).

CMT’s Brian Philips (President) and Leslie Fram (Senior vp music and talent) are joined by parent company Viacom’s Executive vp music and ­multiplatform strategy, Viacom Music & Entertainment Group, Erik Flannigan.

For networks, Dawn Soler (Senior vp music, ABC) has been involved in the Nashville TV shows and the ABC Music Lounge website.
