Splash PR is a public relations agency located in Nashville, TN. It struck my interest because I hope to work for in the music industry in the public relations department. Vanessa Parker-Davis started the public relations agency in 2003.
Misty Hurt is a publicist at Splash PR. After having various internships, Misty found her place at Splash PR after she graduated from Belmont University in 2004 with a degree in Music Business Administration. She has been at Splash PR since it started and previously worked at Capitol Records Nashville as an intern where she worked closely with Vanessa. Misty was already making a breakthrough into the country music industry when she was still attending Belmont University; she definitely got an early start and believes internships and making contacts are extremely important.
Misty works with bands from day to day dealing with their touring and press for the country music industry. Misty is also the Office Manager at Splash PR. It is very difficult to break into the country music industry in Nashville and Misty has proven to do exactly the opposite. She has begun to make a name for herself and has become very successful at the young age of 27 years old. Her job is definitely my dream job and it is definitely inspirational that she has obtained this job at such a young age. Misty really enjoys her job and working for Splash PR.
Splash PR represents country superstars Jeremy McComb, Emerson Drive, John Michael Montgomery, Andy Griggs, Angela Kaset, Little Texas, Greg Hanna, Keith Moody, and Laura Bryna. Splash PR is continuing to grow all over Nashville and continues to be successful.

Internships seem to be a good way of getting contacts and possibly future work.
