Big Loud Mountain, the partnership between Craig Wiseman, Seth England, Joey Moi and Kevin “Chief” Zaruk, is planning the launch of new division Big Loud Records.
Radio veteran Clay Hunnicutt will join the label as President. Hunnicutt spent more than 15 years with iHeartMedia, most recently serving as EVP & GM/National Programming Platforms.
Additional Big Loud Records staff members will be announced in the coming months.
“We’ve had a vision to expand a label division for some time now, but knew we needed the right quarterback. We couldn’t have partnered with anyone better than Clay Hunnicutt,” said England. “He has laser vision and leadership abilities that blow us away every time we speak to him. Big Loud Records couldn’t be anymore thrilled that he has chosen us in this new phase of his career.”
“There are not many things in this world that would make me want to leave iHeartMedia after 17 years, but the opportunity to start something new with Big Loud Records and these 4 partners was it,” shared Hunnicutt. “It’s a dream team of knowledge, success, and belief that will help power some great music and break new artists. We will work hard to do the right things for the right reasons with the right people!”
England runs the day-to-day operations of Big Loud Mountain, which has management clients including Florida Georgia Line, Chris Lane and Dallas Smith.
Hunnicutt can be reached by email at clay@bigloudrecords.com or by phone at 615.329.1929.
