According to Hannon, “These are challenging times for our industry, and the need for strategic planning and alliances has never been greater.

Chairman Mike Curb stated, “I am extremely proud and appreciative of all that Dennis has accomplished for this company over the last quarter century. There is no question our company would not be where it is today, if not for his abilities and tireless dedication. I couldn’t think of a more perfect person to tackle the strategic development of Curb Records and help grow our business in new and exciting ways.”
Added Norman, “I’ve had the pleasure of knowing and working closely with Mike for many years. Through music, philanthropy, education and racing, the many contributions Curb has made to Nashville are innumerable and Mike’s continued leadership in the areas of social justice and human rights has been a constant inspiration. It’s an honor to be working with Curb in such a comprehensive and inclusive way. Finding synergies in these areas will be a challenging but exciting opportunity.”
