Triple Tigers Expands Promo Team With Akando Music

June 17, 2025/by Lorie Hollabaugh

JC Coffey

Triple Tigers Records is expanding its promotion department with a second promotion team, Akando Music.

Promotion veteran JC Coffey has been named Sr. Director of National Promotion at Akando and will direct the day-to-day operations along with the efforts of the Akando promo team. Raffaella Braun, Triple Tigers VP of Promotion and Kevin Herring, Co-President of Triple Tigers Records, will oversee Akando Music.

“With more and more artists vying for radio exposure, Akando will serve as a valuable resource, offering an option for artists without a country radio promo team” says Herring.

Triple Tigers Records was launched in 2016 and the executive team includes George Couri (managing partner), Annie Ortmeier (Co-President), Herring (Co-President), Laura Hostelley (VP Marketing) and Braun (VP Promotion). Their roster currently includes Scotty McCreery, Russell Dickerson, Jordan Fletcher and Shane Profitt. The label has had 11 No. 1 singles at country radio and over 25 RIAA certifications.

Reach the team at kevin@tripletigers.com, raffaella@tripletigers.com and jc@akandopromo.com.
