Decatur-based Lenz Music, a division of Lenz, Inc., kicked off its latest venture – Red Eye Gravy Records – Friday, May 28 with private and public parties. The record label marks a foray into the music world for the marketing firm and, based on the company’s longtime affinity for and support of the arts, Red Eye Gravy Records is a natural progression for Lenz.
In past years, Lenz Music has sponsored live performances, as well as three fundraisers and benefits for cancer research and survivors.
Lenz is proud to have Nashville singer/songwriter Nathan Beaver as Red Eye Gravy Records’ inaugural artist, and his second studio album, Universal You, as the first album. Media, music lovers, and community members gathered Friday to hear two special performances by Beaver, held at Lenz’s offices on the downtown Decatur Square. The event was a great success, full of music, conversation, and laughter. Red Eye Gravy had advance copies of Universal You and newly designed Nathan Beaver t-shirts available for purchase.
“Nathan is a talented and promising musician, and we’re so glad to have him on the Red Eye Gravy team,” said Richard Lenz, president and CEO of Lenz. “The launch party was a perfect opportunity to showcase Nathan’s talent as well as officially unveil Red Eye Gravy Records. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the response and turn-out.”
