Green Hills Gets a New Name on the Roster

SESAC has named Abbey Watson Manager, Creative Services, moving her up the ranks at the performing rights organization that keeps close watch over the songwriters and publishers who make Music Row run. Watson comes up through Belmont University, the campus that has quietly fed Nashville's music business its talent for years. It is the kind of promotion that does not make headlines outside the industry itself, but inside the rooms where songs get signed and catalogs get managed, titles like this one matter.
