Ames-Meyer Musical Troth
One of the Bay Area's most prominent and respected music publicists, Karen Ames, is closing up shop on her PR company to spend full time with Meyer Sound as its first Vice President of Marketing and Communications.
Before she formed her company, Ames occupied top communication positions at the San Francisco Opera and Symphony, and Houston Grand Opera. Her clients included Cal Performances, San Francisco International Film Festival, Green Music Center, and many others. Of her new appointment, she said:
Throughout my many years in the music industry, I have been fortunate to work with artists determined to enrich the lives of audiences. Meyer Sound's founders and engineers share that same goal. They understand what those onstage and in the audience need and want in terms of sound that communicates. They believe that, in the world of sound and sound reinforcement, everything is possible. And they have the genius, drive, and sense of adventure to achieve their ideal. I am privileged to become part of this legendary company.
