Big Machine Label Group has appointed Jodi Dawes as Vice President of Publicity & Communications.

Dawes will oversee the label group’s PR department and lead media strategy across the imprints of Big Machine Records, The Valory Music Company and Nashville Harbor Records & Entertainment. She is on the job now, reporting directly to BMLG Chairman and CEO Scott Borchetta.

“What Scott and his team at Big Machine Label Group have built across the last two decades is remarkable, and their enthusiasm for the future of the company is contagious,” shares Dawes. “I am thrilled to join them and work with this roster of talented artists, encompassing burgeoning new voices, road-tested hitmakers, and bonafide stars. It’s an honor to lead publicity efforts at BMLG at such an exciting time for this label, and for country music as a whole.”

Dawes joins BMLG from Universal Music Group Nashville, where she spent more than three years spearheading label publicity campaigns for artists including Brothers Osborne, Parker McCollum, Maddie & Tae, Jon Pardi, Jordan Davis, Anne Wilson, Tucker Wetmore, Josh Ross and more. Prior to her time at UMGN, Dawes gained experience at several boutique PR firms in Nashville, including four years at Sweet Talk Publicity where she handled day-to-day publicity needs for Ernest, Chris Lane, Breland and RaeLynn, among others.

“Jodi is joining us at a very important time in the evolution of the Big Machine Label Group,” says Borchetta. “Her laser-sharp acumen in the media world will not only enhance, but add a multiple to supercharging all things Big Machine. I am thrilled to have her on the team.”

Dawes can be reached at jodi.dawes@bmlg.net.
