MCA Consolidates Radio Promotion Departments

April 25, 2025/by LB Cantrell

The Music Corporation of America (MCA), which announced its relaunch from Universal Music Group Nashville earlier this week, has consolidated its radio promotion departments into two teams.

With both teams remaining under the leadership of Damon Moberly, SVP of Promotion, the EMI Records Nashville and Mercury Nashville rosters will now be serviced by Jimmy Rector and his team, and the Capitol Records Nashville and MCA Nashville rosters will be overseen by Miranda McDonald and her team.

VP of Promotion & Strategy David Friedman, Director of Promotion Katie Bright and Director of Radio Marketing Houston Gaither will work under the umbrella of MCA.

The Capitol/MCA team will include Donna Jo Passuntino, Annie Sandor, Shannon Hogan, Ashley Knight, Katelyn Lester, Megan Youngblood and Kenzie Couch. The EMI/Mercury team will be comprised of Jack Christopher, Trudie Daniell, Summer Harlow, John Trapane, Briarman Whitfield and Joslyn Richardson.

Capitol VP/Promotion Chris Schuler will transition to a yet-to-be-defined role.

Radio staffers Nick Kaper, Mara Sidweber, Mike Krinik, Sally Green, Jill Brunett, Sean Dolan and Christopher Raphael-Reily have exited the label.
