Insurance Brokerage Hub International Unlimited Adds Sr. VP To Nashville Operation

Shannon Bare

Insurance brokerage Hub International Limited (HUB) has expanded its Nashville operation through the addition of entertainment specialist Shannon Bare, joining the firm as Senior Vice President.

Bare has 20 years’ experience providing insurance and risk management solutions to many of the top-grossing country, rock, Christian and hip-hop concert tours, while also looking after production companies, promoters and festivals. As the youngest son of Country Music Hall of Fame member Bobby Bare, Shannon spent much of his childhood on tour buses, concert stages, TV shows and in recording studios. His in-depth understanding of the entertainment business is an incredible asset to the clients he serves.

“What attracted me to HUB is their overall approach to the business –a focus on strong, locally managed offices backed by the resources of a top 10 global broker,” said Bare, “Joining HUB gives me unprecedented leverage in the marketplace and behind-the-scenes support like I’ve never had before. It’s an honor to be part of the team.”

Shannon will continue to help entertainment businesses control their cost of risk and be instrumental in expanding the company’s footprint. Prior to joining HUB International, Bare was Senior Vice President at Robertson Taylor/Integro, and founded the entertainment division at BB&T Insurance in Nashville.
