are successful, so am I."- Martha E. Moore

 Nashville, TN - When Martha Moore opened the offices of
so much MOORE media in 1988, she
threw the doors of her "boutique" firm wide open by announcing
her first client, Johnny Cash. Since its inception, the company has
specialized in media relations for Independent artists, taking innovative
avenues and harnessing new technologies to help her clients reach their
goals. Her natural charm, combined with her passion for music has
helped Martha grow an ever-expanding list of clients. Moore
has worked with a wide range of acts, from "new" artists like
Todd Fritsch, Jeff Griffith, Lantana and Lisa O'Kane to established
artists like Cash, Hank Cochran, David Frizzell, Jerry Reed, Sylvia, the
Amazing Rhythm Aces and the late Big Al Downing. She has nurtured
the careers of singer/songwriters Karen Taylor-Good, Jeffrey Halford,
Walter Hyatt and Victor Mecyssne Anthony, and is known for taking her
clients from local and regional acclaim to national and international
prominence. However, if you asked Martha to name a 'favorite,' she is
likely to pick legendary country singer/songwriter Hank Cochran; he's
been with Moore for an astonishing 12-year run. "Hank is just
a jewel," she says.
Known as "Skates" to her pals up
and down Music Row (and around the globe); Moore is fun-loving and
"high-amped." No one can question her work ethic, and her
talents are many - and diverse. She is a member of the ACM, AMA, CMA,
NARAS, NATD, Roots Music Association and SOURCE, and was named to
Cambridge's Who's Who of Executives for 2007-2008. Martha has
guest-lectured at Belmont University on three different occasions,
speaking on the topics of Public Relations, image and international
media, and her firm has handled media for two books: 30 Years On the Road With Gene
Autry (Johnny Bond) and No
Name of the Bullet (the biography of Audie Murphy, written by
Don Graham). In 2001 Moore "jumped the fence" and put on her
"media cap" to write a monthly column entitled "roots,
boots & 'billy" for the Irish magazine Country Music Plus.
Martha has handled publicity for Country and Americana artists from 12
states, as well as entertainers from Australia, Ireland, Norway and
Scotland. She's joined many of her clients on their overseas tours,
and says with her trademark smile, "I've been in Germany and Holland
in zero-degree weather, in England during the floods, Italy and Spain
when it felt like 100 degrees and France during all seasons - and I've
loved every minute of it."
Upcoming projects for so
much MOORE media
include: Randy Thompson, Zane Lewis, Ansel Brown and Sammy
Sadler. She is, she says, "Looking forward to the musical
adventures the future will bring." If the past 20 years serve
as an indicator of things to come, the adventures should be plentiful and
Moore's business should continue to flourish.
