Jonas Entertainment Group Launches Red Van Records, Signs Levi Hummon
Jonas Group Entertainment (JGE) and founder Kevin Jonas Sr. have launched Red Van Records. Under the leadership of JGE CEO, Phil Guerini, the label will operate out of the JGE offices on Music Row.
The namesake for the label came from the red van that the Jonas family originally toured the country in.
“I can’t begin to guess how many hours and miles we logged driving the guys around the country in that van, but it represents the commitment you make to be in the music industry,” says Jonas Sr. “We were always building and in motion and that’s the philosophy of Red Van Records.”
Singer-songwriter and Nashville native Levi Hummon is Red Van Records’ flagship signing. His debut release for the label, “Paying For It” with Walker Hayes, will come out Oct. 27.
“With the values and ideals that are the foundation of Red Van Records, Levi is the perfect artist to launch our label,” shares Guerini. “He is so well respected in the music community as a complete artist, and he has been tireless in his pursuit of music and taking it to the fans on the road. It’s the unrelenting pace and ‘firsts’ of the early days that may seem small at the time, but like the red van, they are the start of something truly special.”
Label services for Red Van Records will be provided by Dan Pearson’s Lakeside Entertainment Group.
