"I'm excited to make the change and come on board with the results driven team at RMG," said Cassidy of his new position.
"This is an exciting time for new event development and I look forward to expanding our opportunities in not only Las Vegas, but across the western region with regard to western lifestyle programs."
"We're thrilled to have a driven, solid professional like Sean join the RMG team because he knows both broadcasting and events," stated Michael LaBroad, Chief Marketing Officer for RMG. "He has extensive salesexperience, connections and the sort of Vegas energy that brings in the results we want to see with RMG, especially now that we are launching RURAL RADIO on SiriusXM and significantly extended our reach."
