Industry Ink: BLA, Catch This Music, Matt Rizor Fundraiser

BLA Adds To Artist Roster

Buddy Lee Attractions (BLA) has added Andy Griggs and Mark Wills to the booking agency’s roster of notable country music entertainers, which includes Darryl Worley, Daryle Singletary, Halfway to Hazard, Radio Romance and more.

“The Country music sector has long provided a venue for a wide variety of musical styles,” said Donna Lee, Owner and CEO, Buddy Lee Attractions. “Griggs and Wills have made it evident, with their consistent demand, that their style of music can put bodies in seats at any venue. Promoters recognize their ‘test of time’ entertainment value.”

Catch This Music Adds Executive Assistant

Kathryn Graham

Catch This Music has added Kathryn Graham in an executive assistant role. A graduate of Full Sail University, she worked for five years at Bluewater Music. Her career path has also included stops at Lyric Financial and ClearBox Rights.

“I’ve always felt the artists/writers were missing a trusted source where administrative and creative thinkers come together to form a family circled around the growth of their music. CTM is this place,” says Graham.

“I’m so excited to have Kathryn join our CTM family,” says CTM President/CEO Eddie Robba. “Kathryn brings great value and excitement to our team.”

Fundraiser For Industry Member Matt Rizor

Matt Rizor

Just over one year ago, booking agent Matt Rizor was left in a coma after being hit by a car in Nashville. Today, after months of therapy, Rizor is walking, running, and talking, though still on the road to a full recovery.

He has had therapy at Stallworth Center in Nashville, the Shepard Center in Atlanta, and at NeuroRestorative in Michigan. Friends and family hope to raise $15,000 to cover therapy and travel expenses for continued therapy for Rizor, as Medicaid will not cover therapy at NeuroRestorative.
