About us
It takes a myriad of professionals to turn this wheel we call the music business: radio air personalities, tour managers, record label insiders, specialists in television programming, directors of live events and publicists who provide artists with the exposure needed to keep the wheel in motion. Knowledge is power, and executive/entrepreneur Jeremy Westby is the power behind 2911 Enterprises. Westby is the rare individual whose twenty-five years of experience in the music industry champions each of those arenas—on a multi genre level in all realms. After all, how many people can say they’ve worked side by side with Megadeth, Meat Loaf, Micheal W. Smith and Dolly Parton? Westby can. “I want 2911 to be a change agent in the world: in entertainment, sports, politics, and in many different areas, because I think the world needs to hear good messages,” says Westby. “The world needs healing and inspiration, and if there is a way I can go about my day and provide inspiration, healing, hope, and change, I want to do that.” As President & CEO of 2911 Media, Westby continues a working relationship with Country Music Hall of Famers The Oak Ridge Boys that began when he was in college. He also represents country legends Charley Pride, Lee Greenwood, Lacy J. Dalton, and Janie Fricke, pop/rock icons Wanda Jackson, Don McLean and Sam Moore, newcomers Lee Gantt, Sara Spicer, JD Shelburne and Patrick James, and acclaimed musicians Tim Atwood and Kyle Dillingham, among others. “I created 2911 to be a vehicle for change in the world for the right reasons,” says Westby, who named the company after his favorite, namesake Bible verse, Jeremiah 29:11 -- For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
