Your Voice Saves Lives

As radio hurtled into “the roaring 20s,” The 31st Annual St. Jude Country Cares Seminar brought together programmers, air talent, marketing professionals, sales staff, labels executives and artists to celebrate more than three decades of partnership and work toward the future of the program. St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and Country radio first joined forces in 1989, and since that time, radio has used its collective voice to raise approximately $850 million for the fight to end childhood cancer. This year’s seminar centered on a theme: “Your Voice Saves Lives,” a play on the third annual This Shirt Saves Lives campaign. Breakout sessions and featured speakers focused on storytelling and how radio partners can best use their collective voice to raise awareness and funds for St. Jude. ALSAC SVP/Marketing Mike Siegel, who previously handled similar duties for Eastman Kodak, said that the film company once touted itself as America’s storyteller. “You, right here in this room, are America’s storytellers,” Siegel reminded radio attendees. “We’ve asked our audience how well they understand what St. Jude does, and we are not No. 1 in that space. And, frankly, that pisses me off! That’s where we need your help... Whether your instrument of work is a microscope or a microphone, you are working to do the good.” Amazing Place: During Friday’s breakfast, Dr. Sara Federico touted recent clinical trial successes made possible by funds donated to St. Jude. The cost to open the doors at St. Jude for one day now totals $2.8 million; in 2019, Country Cares raised a total of $40 million, providing more than 14 full days of operating expenses for the hospital. Since 1989, St. Jude doctors have increased the survival rate of ALL – the most common form of childhood cancer – to 94%, cured “bubble boy disease,” taken their research efforts to a global level, created the largest repository of pediatric genome sequencing data and more.

One Week With: Warner Publicity

After walking a mile — and flying many more — in the shoes of a publisher, booking agent, PD and record rep, the “One Week With” series continues with the Warner Music Nashville publicity team. Country Aircheck caught up with SVP/Publicity Wes Vause, Dir./Publicity Mary Catherine Rebrovick, Mgr./Publicity Victoria Chaitoff and Asst./Publicity Kristi Bradshaw at the end of 2019 — just in time for Blake Shelton’s album release week. “Publicity is a million things,” Vause explains. “We’re like a promo team for media.

My Tunes: Gabby Barrett Warner/WAR’s Gabby Barrett puts an industry spin on the artist interview: I listened to a lot of WOGI/Pittsburgh growing up. Specifically, The Danger Show. I also listened to Classic Rock stations and R&B with my dad. Lots of diversity in what I was exposed to musically by my parents. I first heard myself on the radio on my hometown station, WOGI. Danger (Jeremy Mulder) Gabby Barrett would put my demos/early songs on his show when I was 13-14 years old. The first song of mine he spun was called “Young Blood.” Now, hearing “I Hope” on the radio is surreal, and I’m so thankful that Country radio is supportive of it. Just this past week, my luggage did not make it to Lafayette, LA. I had to go shopping at the mall for clothes, makeup, hair products…all my show essentials, immediately. My husband Cade is always my favorite road companion. I love that we both play music, and he understands what it means to live on the road, playing shows and pursuing this career path. If I could go to dinner with one person — living or dead — it would be my all-time favorite, Michael Jackson. I grew up listening to everything of his, and would love to talk about his music career, his performances and the songs that impacted me. My single, “I Hope,” was inspired by seeing women I love and am close to getting their hearts broken time and time again by men that have made bad choices. We wrote it on Halloween 2018 in Nashville — my buddies Zach Kale and Jon Nite brought into the writers room an idea about how a guy does the girl wrong in a relationship, they break up, but she wishes him well in the end. I quickly let them know that that wasn’t going to work; women aren’t like that a lot of the time. I remember being in high school and feeling things I never got to say. So, that’s where this song originated from. Thankfully, I’ve grown from these feelings as time has gone on, but I think this song is one that people can sing through their pain and move on from whatever caused it. I wish I had written Dolly Parton’s “I Will Always Love You.” It’s one of the most classic country songs that also crossed genre lines when one of my favorite artists of all time, Whitney Houston, covered it for The Bodyguard soundtrack. The lyric is beautiful. I love the meaning of it, and I think it is a perfect song. My road essentials are my Bible, water, chapstick, headphones and phone. If I had to be stuck somewhere, I’d choose a warm place with clear water. When Cade and I went on our honeymoon last year, that was my only criteria to where I wanted to go. I’m playing Tortuga Music Festival later this year, and if I get stuck in Ft. Lauderdale, I can’t say I’d be upset about it. I love Stranger Things on Netflix. I know that’s old news at this point, but every season it gets better and better, and (no spoilers) you should absolutely watch it if you haven’t yet. I can’t wait for season four!

– have decreased, but TV has proliferated and the lines keep blurring. Country performs well for TV, so a lot of our time is spent there. But we’re also event coordinators, writers, planners, photographers, videographers, counselors, crisis managers ... and exhausted.” Monday: With Fully Loaded: God’s Country landing Friday and Brett Here Today: Eldredge on Eldredge in New York NBC’s Today. for his Glow Live Tour, the team is running at top speed. Vause does a half day in the office adding finishing touches to Shelton’s schedule. It’s packed with The Voice Tuesday, taping New Years Eve With Carson Daly and Ellen on Wednesday, and Thursday’s Kelly Clarkson Show taping and iHeart Theater performance. Bradshaw sends music videos, talk points and CDs for audience giveaway to the Kelly and Ellen teams. Rebrovick is following up with media members who will be attending Eldredge’s Beacon Theatre shows regarding ticket details and party info. She also preps a Morgan Evans press release and jumps on a Dan + Shay conference call. Chaitoff is focused on submitting materials on the label’s nominated artists to the Grammy marketing team and reviewing the label’s ticket needs for the show. Meanwhile, Vause gets an unexpected surprise on his 4pm to LA. “Empty middle seat? Yahoo! Who needs first class?” Tuesday: Morning in Los Angeles, and calls abound for Vause, who is also ordering a rush-made plaque for the justcertified double platinum “God’s Country” to be presented to Shelton on Kelly. “During rehearsal, Blake says, ‘Trace [Adkins] isn’t going back to Nashville until tomorrow morning. I’ll ask him if he wants to come up and tape the New Years Eve performance with us.’” Vause says. “I have to quickly reach out to their team and let them know he’s coming, so they can add mics and changes in production.” Back in Nashville, Rebrovick swings by a manager’s office to hear new music. “Publicists are constantly planning things way

Friday: While Vause flies back to Nashville, working through email the whole way, Rebrovick works on a release announcing Ingrid Andress as support on the Dan + Shay tour. “Every time we announce something new, it’s also time to update the press materials again,” she says. “Ingrid and Morgan had a couple interviews set up, so I made sure those were connected and completed. Wrapped up the week joining our streaming team on a conference call with a major DSP to discuss an artist partnership for early 2020.” “This was typical crazy for a launch week, although we didn’t try to do two coasts,” Vause concludes. “So staying in LA helped. And every week isn’t a launch week, but there’s always something. Except downtime. There’s not a lot of that.” –Caitlin DeForest Back In Plaque: The double platinum plaque for Shelton’s “God’s Country” makes it just in time. Pictured (l-r) are the label’s Scott Hendricks, Shelton and Starstruck’s Narvel and Brandon Blackstock.

in advance, since most print pubs and late-night TV shows book/ write about artists one to three months in advance,” she says. “I’m already mapping out which TV show would be right for a debut and asking questions about a release date so we can get the ball rolling with sending advance music.” An independent publicist raises a flag about a problematic article. “We sometimes refer to this as a fire drill,” Chaitoff says. “Almost all outlets don’t allow us or artists an advance review of what’s being printed, which can occasionally result in misinformation, misquotes or confusing edits. Luckily, this article had only been shared digitally and the editors were able to tweak before running in print.” Wednesday: The morning starts for Vause with a text from Entertainment Tonight looking for a comment on a tabloid rumor. Ellen producer Jonathan Norman talks Shelton through the run of show. “Even though he’s beloved, that does not spare him from getting some shit from Blake,” Vause says. The show’s tight schedule is eased when Shelton nails his “Hell Right” taping in two passes. The rest of the crew attends offsite Warner Music Nashville meetings that ended with new artist performances and a trade shot, which they, of course, wrangled. Thursday: D-Day minus-1 for Shelton’s album, so a long day for Vause and Team Blake. “Kelly’s show is different in a couple of ways,” he says. “They tape the performance at the top of the show as a separate segment, then add it into the show in editing. And if you have an interview, you stay out here on the sofa for the full show. Like Johnny Carson used to do it.”

Chart Chat

Congratulations to Dan + Shay, Kristen Williams, Tom Martens, James Marsh and the Warner/WAR promotion team on landing at No. 1 with “10,000 Hours” featuring Justin Bieber. The song is the duo’s seventh career chart-topper and the first single from a forthcoming fourth studio album. Songwriters are Dan + Shay Jessie Jo Dillon, Sam Boyd, Jordan Reynolds, Bieber and Dan + Shay’s Dan Smyers and Shay Mooney. And kudos to Anna Cage and the Warner/WMN crew on notching 57 adds for Blake Shelton’s “Nobody But You” featuring Gwen Stefani, topping this week’s board.

Your Voice Saves Lives (continued from page 1) Following the day’s hospital tours, a roaring 20s-themed party was held Friday evening. BMLGR’s Lady Antebellum were honored for their service to St. Jude with the Angels Among Us Award. “Using their voices and talent, Lady Antebellum has made such a powerful impact on the lives of children worldwide through their support of St. Jude,” said ALSAC Pres./CEO Rick Shadyac. ACM Lifting Lives, represented by Academy CEO Damon Whiteside and ACMLL’s Taylor Wolf, presented a $50,000 donation to St. Jude on behalf of the trio. Saturday, current and former patients shared their stories with attendees, as did current radio partners. Breakout panels covered “Telling Your St. Jude Story,” the “ABCs Rick Shadyac of Radiothon,” “Making the Phones Ring” and “Sales.” WUSN/Chicago’s Marci Braun, WGAR/Cleveland’s Carletta Blake, WFRE/Frederick, MD’s Tom Whalen, KTOM/Monterey, CA’s DJ Walker and WLKB/ Boston’s Amanda Jo Parker were among those sharing tips and tricks.

Flash talks were a new addition to the lineup, with KWEN/ Tulsa’s Matt Bradley, KSON/San Diego’s John Flint & Tammy Lee and KRWQ/Medford, OR’s Ashley Main & Jason Allen among those sharing personal St. Jude moments as well as station success stories. “In radio, we tend to be constantly looking for a new trick – something shiny and different – but Country Cares reinforced the benefits of mastering the basics,” said WFUS/Tampa MD Sarah Jacobs. “Hit your listeners in the heart, then give them the number to call. It sounds simple, but sometimes it’s easy to get away from those basics in the middle of two long days of a radiothon.” The afternoon featured a surprise speaker – film and television screenwriter/director/ producer Tom Shadyac, who spoke about John Flint vision, service, sacrifice and fear. “To have vision, you have to be willing to consider what you are not seeing,” Shadyac said, sharing stories of times throughout his life when he walked into a proverbial “dark room,” unaware of what may await him, setting aside fear to chase the unknown. He also reminded radio attendees of why their voice should be used for the greater good, saying, “Art is a service industry; to serve is to be wealthy.” Sarah Jacobs The afternoon concluded with the annual “Meet The Patients” panel. “Seeing seven-year-old Londyn’s father onstage during this session was powerful,” says Flint. “He was so proud and happy for his daughter but also so obviously scared. I can’t imagine that kind of fear; that really got me.” How Sweet The Sound: The seminar wrapped with the annual songwriters dinner, which featured Country Cares founder Randy Owen of Alabama, Arista’s Brad Paisley and BMLGR’s Brett Young. “The greatest proof of what humankind is capable of is this hospital,” said Paisley, who was joined onstage by St. Jude patient Addie Pratt to perform “Alive Right Now.” After 31 years supporting St. Jude’s mission, there is still work to be done in keeping children alive right now.
