Arista Nashville Closed

The Nashville label started by Clive Davis 35 years ago has been closed. Artista Nashville, once home to Brooks & Dunn, Alan Jackson, Brad Paisley, and Carrie Underwood was shut down last week. The reason? So owner Sony can focus more energy on radio. When the chart is moving slow, having more artists isn't better. Here's an interview with the head of Sony Nashville:

Goodman adds that the move is really business as usual. “Our job is artist development, our job is to break new artists, our job is to expand careers of the artists that have already broken through,” Goodman says. “And so, in this new world as things continue to change, we’re constantly evaluating what’s the best way to do that.”

The change doesn't affect the pop division of the label, based in NYC.
