Title: Front of House Names Bill Evans as Editor
Written On: July 2002 By: FOH  

 

FOH Mag

Timeless Communications, Inc., publisher of the highly successful entertainment technology trade magazine, Pro Lights and Staging News, and the annual Event Production Directory is pleased to announce the appointment of industry veteran, Bill Evans, to the position of Editor of Front of House (FOH), the new monthly magazine for the live sound industry scheduled for an October 2002 launch. Mr. Evans will assume the editorial helm at FOH beginning July 15.

Most recently, Mr. Evans was Editor-in-Chief of GIG Magazine, the publication for working musicians. A highly respected entertainment industry journalist, Mr. Evans brings substantial live sound reporting experience and a solid news background to FOH. A working musician and sound technician who gigs regularly in Southern California, Mr. Evans has extensive personal knowledge of the information needs of the live event sound professional.

"I'm very excited about the upcoming launch of Front of House," said Evans. "The live sound industry needs a publication that is totally committed to covering its unique issues and concerns. Existing audio publications have put the editorial emphasis on other segments of the sound business such as broadcast, recording, and replication to such a degree that live sound articles are relegated to the back of the magazine. The professional who makes his or her living from live event sound doesn't want to flip to page 65 to find editorial content relevant to their business. FOH will fill a void in the market by serving the information needs of today's live sound professionals from cover to cover."

 

"We are extremely fortunate to have Bill Evans on board as the Editor for Front of House," said Terry Lowe, President of Timeless Communications, Inc. "He is a veteran journalist with impeccable credentials who is widely respected throughout the entertainment industry. What brought Bill to our attention was his well-known column in GIG called "Front of House." That we are using the same industry term for the title of our new magazine is serendipitous to say the least."

FOH's sister publication, Pro Lights and Staging News (PLSN), has become the number one book in its market since its launch in 1999. PLSN's successful editorial format emphasizes industry news and product information and will serve as a model for FOH. Says Mr. Evans, "What most attracted me to this position was how Timeless Communications has built PLSN into the unqualified industry leader in such a short time. You can't do that without listening to the industry's concerns and translating that into outstanding editorial that delivers the information readers depend on to run their businesses. Listening to reader's needs is the cornerstone of my publishing philosophy. It will be a pleasure to work with a publishing team who shares the same convictions."

A resident of Altadena, California, Mr. Evans will be based in the Timeless Communications headquarters in nearby Tarzana. He can be reached at 818-654-2474 e-mail bevans@fohonline.com.
