Eric Church and Longtime Manager John Peets Launch Solid Entertainment
NASHVILLE (CelebrityAccess) – Eric Church and longtime manager John Peets have partnered to form an all-inclusive enterprise – Solid Entertainment.
Solid Entertainment will handle all things Church while taking care of things behind the scenes on Church’s investments, including Church’s new award-winning SiriusXM Channel Outsiders Radio and his Lower Broadway venue, bar, and restaurant, Chief’s, along with his in-house merchandise operation and loyal fan club, known as the Church Choir.
“I’m incredibly proud of the path we’ve taken to get to this point in all our careers and to have experienced so much of it together,” Church shares. “As our business continues to expand in different areas, it was important to me to establish a team of people that is focused on this growth. None of us got into music for the business of it, yet it’s part of how we are our most creative selves: through finding those other avenues for connection. It’s humbling to be in a position where such incredibly talented people want to focus on the future together.”
Peets adds, “I am very proud to take our professional relationship to the next level. We have been working creatively together since 2004, and Solid Entertainment represents a fresh look and a continued commitment to all we have built. I look forward to adding to this foundation with an eye towards all that comes with the ongoing expansion of Eric’s empire.”
Taking on the role of President is industry professional Marshall Alexander, who will also serve as representative for Chief’s. Brandon Schneeberger will oversee day-to-day management for Church. Industry vets Shane Allen and Kimsey Kerr have been tapped to launch and run Outsiders Radio. Bryan Chisholm joins the team to lead Digital Marketing, and Hayley Harris has been appointed to manage the fan club. Matt Wheeler continues to oversee Chief Merchandise.
