NASHVILLE, TN, May 1, 2017 — Sponsorship opportunities are still available – though openings are dwindling fast – for hole sponsorships and golfing foursome registrations for the landmark 20th Annual AudioMasters Benefit Golf Tournament, once again returning to the scenic Harpeth Hills Golf Course for two days of networking, camaraderie and fun in the sun on Thursday, May 11, and Friday, May 12, 2017. The yearly event – the primary fund-raiser benefiting the Nashville Engineer Relief Fund (NERF) – has become one of the most highly anticipated industry functions in Nashville. It is a production of the Audio Engineering Society Nashville Section on behalf of the 503c2 non-profit corporation, NERF, Inc., created to assist members of the greater Nashville audio community in times of personal or family crisis.

The event is a production of the Nashville AES section and Premier Golf Services. Day One (Thursday, May 11) is the “JBL Professional AudioMasters Live Day,” focusing on the live sound industry and welcoming JBL Professional as the title sponsor. Day Two (Friday, May 12) is the “Sweetwater AudioMasters,” the studio-community-focused day under the banner of perennial title sponsor Sweetwater Sound, a sponsorship made possible by Chuck and Lisa Surack. Both days include breakfast, open driving range, a four-person scramble, and awards receptions following the golf, along with an abundance of treats and beverages along the way.

To date, confirmed sponsors include HARMAN Professional (including JBL Professional) and Sweetwater, along with API, Audio-Technica, the Audio Engineering Society, Blackbird Studio, Clair, Clyne Media, Conservatory of Recording Arts and Sciences, DiGiCo, Digital Console Rentals, Dickinson Wright, Echo Mountain Studios, Genelec, Georgetown Masters, Iron Mountain , J Sound Services, Mix Magazine, Morris, NTS Promedia, Pro Sound News, The Recording Academy P&E Wing, Roland, Sound Construction, SSL, Sound Stage Studios (Black River), Southern Ground Studios, The Tracking Room, Trew Audio, Vintage King and Welcome to 1979, with more lining up by the week. These sponsors provide support for the event in various capacities – hosting holes or special prizes, useful swag, general financial support, and more. Some join in the golfing play as well. Those hosting the holes give each tee its own twist; most provide food or other refreshments, along with side games, product demos, giveaways and plenty of networking opportunities. Hole sponsors have the opportunity to interface with potential clients four at a time, every few minutes. Tournament sponsors have their name in front of a targeted audience of industry professionals.

The team roster and hole sponsorship roster is filling up fast, but a few slots are still available. Sign up now to make sure you’re part of this year’s fun. Visit www.theaudiomasters.org for more information and to sign up. You can also email George Jones at audiomasters@premiergolfservices.com, or call 800-685-1802.

About the Nashville Engineer Relief Fund (NERF):
The Nashville Engineer Relief Fund originated through the efforts of the AES Nashville Section and NAPRS in holding a Music Row Audio Yard Sale. Proceeds from this initial event assisted with the financial recuperation of a Nashville engineer who was stricken with a life-threatening health problem. The following spring, the first AudioMasters Benefit Golf Tournament began as the primary fund-raising event contributing to NERF, and the event has been held at the Harpeth Hills Golf Course every May since. The stated goal of this fund is “to allow financial assistance for individuals in our (engineering) community who, through illness and tragic circumstances, are unable to practice their profession or face other serious problems.”
