ASCAP Commemorates Country Radio Seminar 45th Anniversary At 53rd Annual ASCAP Country Music Awards
New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) celebrated the 45th anniversary of the Country Radio Seminar (CRS) at its 53rd Annual ASCAP Country Music Awards on Monday, Nov. 2. CRS Executive Director Bill Mayne and former ASCAP executives Judy Harris, owner Judy Harris Music, and Charlie Monk, CRS Director Emeritus, accepted the honor from ASCAP Board Member Barry Coburn.

The Country Radio Seminar was founded in 1969 to connect country radio with the country music industry. Harris and Monk were ASCAP executives who saw value in promoting the growth of country radio. ASCAP hosted the first seven years of planning meetings and ASCAP's annual songwriter showcases have been among its most popular features.

In recent years, CRS has featured nearly every top artist or group as they were on their way up, from guitar slingers like Keith Urban and Brad Paisley to Jason Aldean, Little Big Town, Miranda Lambert, Luke Bryan, Eric Church and Blake Shelton.

As CRS has grown to become the world's largest radio conference, so has the number of Country stations, from less than 200 to more than 2,300, with 200 million spins per year.

About Country Radio Seminar:

CRS 2016 will be held Feb. 8-10, 2016 at Omni Nashville. Visit www.CountryRadioSeminar.com for more information.
