MusicRow Introduces New N.B.T. Music Industry Directory, Submissions Now Open

September 18, 2019/by LB Cantrell

In our effort to recognize the industry’s up-and-coming talent, MusicRow‘s inaugural N.B.T. (Next Big Thing) Music Industry Directory will be featured in MusicRow‘s print issue that comes out the first week of December.

The N.B.T. Music Industry Directory is the first and only list of its kind, showcasing Nashville music business professionals who are rising through the ranks. This class of industry members occupy mid-level roles at their respective companies, and are on a trajectory of excellence to lead the Nashville music industry into the future. Applicants should ideally have a minimum of 5 or more years experience in the music industry.

Sherod Robertson, MusicRow Publisher/Owner says, “As leaders in the music industry, it’s important to work closely with up-and-coming professionals to help them become better, more effective leaders in the future—which not only benefits the Nashville music industry today, but helps advance the direction of our industry into the future. Recognizing these individuals is the first step and is the mission of this new MusicRow directory.”

This print edition also includes the annual Next Big Thing artists listing, with editorial features focused on the touring segment of our industry.

For you or a staff member(s) to be considered for inclusion in this year’s edition of the N.B.T. Music Industry Directory, please click here to access the application form. (Please note that not all submissions are guaranteed to be listed in the directory.)

Note: If you are submitting multiple candidates, you will need to click on SUBMIT at the bottom of the form before entering another candidate.

While you can submit more than one candidate, only those that meet the above criteria will be considered.

Please send a recent head shot to art@musicrow.com. (Photo specs: 2” x 2” or larger, 266+ dpi, color, jpeg).

New submissions for the directory close on Friday, September 27, 2019. For questions, email lbrogers@musicrow.com or call (615) 499-5420.
