EMPORIUM PRESENTS TAPS BUSWELL

Emporium Presents, largely owned by Live Nation and led by partners Jason Zink and Dan Steinberg, has tapped industry vet Rob Buswell as Head of Radio Shows & Special Events. In his new role, Buswell will help increase Emporium’s show production and expand their specialty events remotely from Arizona.

With over 30 years of radio and concert promotion experience, Buswell previously owned and operated Pro Events since 2001, where he produced events and booked talent for nearly 100 U.S. radio stations, as well as corporate and special events, festivals and Pride events.

Prior to starting his own company, Buswell developed the Radio Events division of Jacor Broadcasting, produced radio events nationwide for Jeff McClusky and Associates, and was also the head of marketing at Avalon Attractions and Fey Concerts. Through his career, Buswell has worked with the likes of Drake, Christina Aguilera, Kanye West, Tool, Jay-Z, Justin Bieber, The Foo Fighters, and Chance the Rapper, among others.

“Rob has been a longtime friend and partner of Emporium Presents. He brings his exceptional experience and relationships to a great team and will help us continue to grow our business,” said Emporium’s COO, Tina Suca. "We haven't yet broken it to him that he's going to be mentioned on HITS, but we hope he takes it OK."
