The Musical Odyssey

of NRG Music &

Productions

BY NICHOLE NAOUM

I

n the heart of NRG Music & Productions lies a tale

of love, creativity, and a deep commitment to making

a positive impact. Founded by Andy Salmonsen in

1984, the journey of this music and entertainment

powerhouse began in the early days of his romance

with his wife, Kymm Civette-Salmonsen, evolving into

a thriving venture that combines passion, talent, and a

strong sense of purpose.

The spark that ignited NRG’s inception came from a

transformative experience in Las Vegas, where Kymm

witnessed a show featuring a female lead singer and

dancers. This moment of creative inspiration fueled her

desire to carve out a unique niche in San Diego’s music

scene. The decision to introduce singers with a strong

dance background set NRG apart, creating a trendsetting

musical experience that quickly gained popularity.

As the years unfolded, NRG’s mission evolved

organically. From a successful band, they transitioned

into curating theme production shows for

philanthropic events. The turning point came when a

client requested a “Decades” theme show, setting the

stage for NRG’s involvement in fundraising events.

The mission was clear - to enhance the overall event

experience, weaving entertainment seamlessly into the

fabric of each unique occasion.
