Will Robinson Joins Quartz Hill Records As Director Of Regional Promotion
Will Robinson has been named Director of Regional Promotion at Quartz Hill Records, effective immediately. The move reunites Robinson with Quartz Hill Records VP/Promotion & Marketing April Rider, who Robinson worked with at RPM Entertainment as Director of Promotion, Midwest/Southwest.
Robinson most recently served as the Director of Promotion, Northeast/Southeast for 19th & Grand Records securing airplay for Zac Brown Band, Tenille Arts, LOCASH, David Lee Murphy and more. His additional label promotion roles include stops at Nine North and IRS Records. He also has an extensive radio career that includes serving as the Music Director Midday Personality for WFRE (Frederick, MD), the Program Director for WCAT and WCPP (Harrisburg, PA), the Creative Director for WNEW (New York, NY) and as the Assistant Program Director and Creative Director for WRBQ and WQYK (Tampa, FL).
“Our team is absolutely thrilled to have Will join our Quartz Hill family,” said Rider. “I’ve worked closely with Will in the past and couldn’t be more excited to be working side by side with him again as we work to launch our flagship artist Nate Barnes.”
“I’m so excited to be working with this legendary team,” said Robinson. “Benny, April and the rest of the team have so much great history. I’m looking forward to us making more!”
Last month Quartz Hill announced its first round of key hires, reuniting many former staffers with Benny Brown, whose legacy includes breaking multi-platinum superstar Jason Aldean and growing his former company BBR Music Group into one of the largest independent country label groups in the U.S. prior to its sale in 2017. The label is continuing to round out its staff, and additional team members will be announced shortly.
