Nashville AudioMasters Benefit Golf Tourney Set for May

Nashville’s recording and live sound community unites once again to have fun in the sun in the name of aiding the Nashville Engineer Relief Fund.

Nashville, TN (April 26, 2018)—For the 21styear running, Nashville will host the 21st Annual AudioMasters golf tournament, benefitting the regional non-profit, Nashville Engineer Relief Fund (NERF). Key sponsors of the event once again are Sweetwater Sound and JBL Professional by Harman.

JBL Professional by Harman returns as title sponsor of the JBL Professional AudioMasters Live Benefit Golf Tournament on May 17, where the focus is on the Nashville live sound community.

A day later, perennial title sponsor Sweetwater Sound returns for Studio Day—the Sweetwater AudioMasters Benefit Golf Tournament on May 18.

Proceeds from the event will aid NERF in continuing its mission to provide financial assistance for individuals in the greater Nashville audio engineering community who, through illness and tragic circumstances, are unable to practice their profession or face other serious problems.

The field comprises up to 128 players each day of the AudioMasters. Nashville’s live sound community, studio engineers and producers dominate the field, but other players include manufacturers’ representatives (typically teamed with local client engineers), studio owners and operators, media representatives and gear vendors.

The AudioMasters is held at the Harpeth Hills golf course on the southern edge of Nashville. The event is produced by the Nashville AES section and event coordinator George Jones and his company, Premier Golf Services. The holes are sponsored by area studios, live sound providers, service and sales companies, industry organizations, manufacturers and others with ties to the Nashville audio community.

There are activities at every tee, ranging from food and beverage to swag and competitions; past offerings have even included activities like massages and carnival games. The end of each day revolves around dinner and awarding trophies and competition hole prizes.

This year’s sponsors, in addition to title sponsors JBL Professional and Sweetwater, include API, The Recording Academy, Clyne Media, AES, Genelec, Morris, MIX and Pro Sound News magazines, Audio-Technica, SSL, DPA Microphones, Sound Stage (Black River), Westlake Pro and many others.

“When someone in the JSS family had a crisis situation, and NERF was there to help, JSS committed to support NERF through AudioMasters sponsorship,” stated Jason Spence, noted monitor engineer and CEO of AVL services firm, JSS. He continues. “We’re proud to work with NERF to help our community take care of our own and you can find us on the tee of Hole Four every year.”
