Sony/ATV Nashville has bolstered its ranks by adding four new team members to its creative staff. Dane Schmidt joins as Creative Director, Katie Kerkhover as Creative Manager, Stephen Denninger as Creative Coordinator, and Laura Castillo as A&R Assistant.

Kerkhover previously worked as an A&R consultant at CAM Creative. She also toured as a fiddle player for several artists, including Sara Evans and Billy Currington.
