Peachtree Entertainment
Talent Buyer/Promoter
Nashville, TN
Background:
Founded in 2013, Peachtree Entertainment is a privately held, Nashville-based global concert promoter specializing in large-scale touring, outdoor festivals, and indoor rodeo concepts. With over 15 years of experience in the music industry, the company has evolved into a leading force in live entertainment, now operating approximately 500 shows annually across club, theater, festival, arena, and stadium venues.
Rooted in an artist-first philosophy, Peachtree has built its reputation by identifying emerging talent early and scaling their touring careers from the ground up. The company has played a key role in launching and developing artists including Luke Combs, Morgan Wallen, Luke Bryan, Riley Green, Ella Langley, Cody Johnson, HARDY, Koe Wetzel, Lainey Wilson, and Gavin Adcock, among many others.
Following its 2024 rebrand, Peachtree is now privately held and independently operated, entering a new phase of accelerated growth. Over the past two years, the company has expanded aggressively into arena and stadium touring under the leadership of CEO Nathan Baugh and President of Live Events Shane Quick.
Peachtree’s continued momentum is fueled by its deep relationships with artist teams and its ability to build touring strategies that scale—from early club plays to headline arena and stadium runs—solidifying its position as a premier partner in the global live music ecosystem.
