Relations
For Immediate Release
CLEARWATER, Fla./EWORLDWIRE/Aug. 31, 2006 --- Adrenaline Nation Entertainment, Inc. (Pink Sheets:
ADNL), which produces Adrenaline Nation TV, the leading channel for cutting edge independent music TV,
innovative independent and short films, and adrenaline sports for the highly coveted 18-49 demographic, today
announced that it has named Juan Contreras, Director of Artist Relations. In this capacity, Contreras will be
responsible for finding and signing the hottest new up and coming artists on the country and cross over music
scenes.
"There is a whole new cadre of new country music that is being ignored by the mainstream market," said
Contreras. "We intend to capitalize on this trend to bring this new talent into the spotlight. This current style of
country music merges the old and the new and will be highly appealing to our audience."
Contreras began his career working in a Kentucky theme park, Kaintuck Territory, where he booked
engagements for many of the top acts of the day such as Johnny Cash and Loretta Lynn. From there Contreras
joined Cartwheel Records where he worked with the highly accomplished country music producer Ron
Chancey and now super-manager Dale Morris.
After Cartwheel was bought by ABC Paramount, Contreras worked with Don Gant who headed up the label.
Contreras promoted records for artists such as Jimmy Buffit, Delbert McClinton, Cashman & West and Jim
Croce, and he gained a strong reputation for crossing country music into pop. Following ABC Paramount,
Contreras was hired as assistant to Fred Foster, president of Monument Records, where he helped start the
recording careers of talents such as Kris Kristofferson, Larry Gatlin, Billy Swan and Al Hurt.
Contreras then went on to work in music publishing for Acuff-Rose as creative director working with great
writers like Don Everly, Whitey Shafer, Don Gibson and Mickey Newbury. Acuff-Rose is known for publishing
the music of Hank Williams, Roy Orbison and The Everly Brothers. While at Acuff-Rose, Contreras also worked
as talent coordinator for William F. Cook television. Here he worked on the television shows, Nashville Swing
and In Session, bringing Nashville country music artists on board to perform on the shows. After working with
Acuff-Rose for five years, he started a new music publishing company with Larry Butler - Larry Butler Music.
Larry Butler Music was a great success launching number one records for George Strait, Eddy Raven,
Alabama and Kenny Rogers. Larry Butler Music was later sold to Michael Jackson’s Manager Frank DeLeo,
and Contreras started a new publishing company, Double J Music, with Jim Scott. Double J Music enjoyed
much success; it won a Country Music Award for "Check Yes Or No" recorded by George Strait.
"We are very pleased to welcome Juan to Adrenaline Entertainment," said Keith Dressel, CEO of Adrenaline
Nation Entertainment, Inc. "He brings to us a stellar track record in finding and signing the best talent in the
industry, and he has had tremendous success in the field of both music and television. Having worked in
Nashville music community for 32 years, he has strong native knowledge of where the new talent lies and how
to expose it to an audience that is ready to consume the new sound."
