MIKE GOWEN
PROMOTED TO ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE AT
THE MITCH SCHNEIDER ORGANIZATION (MSO PR)
 Publicist MIKE GOWEN has been promoted to the position of Account Executive at The Mitch Schneider Organization (MSO PR) effective immediately, announced the company’s President, Mitch Schneider.
“Mike has already accomplished so much at MSO, and he keeps creatively evolving,” says Schneider. “It all comes down to his winning combination of attention to detail, vast knowledge of music, and his respect for both clients and the media. He exudes positivity, and enthusiastically takes on new challenges. Plus,” adds Schneider, “it doesn’t hurt that Mike knows some killer guitar riffs.”
GOWEN began at MSO in 2012 as a part-time assistant before advancing to the position of executive assistant to President Mitch Schneider which was followed by his move from assistant to Associate Publicist in 2014. In his growing career in publicity-which comes from the success of his ability to spearhead effective press campaigns on behalf of his clients-he will continue to further promote both emerging talent and icons in the business.
Over the past five years, GOWEN has been heavily involved in the media campaigns for MSO’s diverse roster of clients in multiple genres including rock/alternative/pop (Andy Grammer, Billy Idol, Brian Setzer, Dave Stewart, Heart, John Fogerty, LIVE, The Magpie Salute, Michael Franti & Spearhead, Sex Pistol Steve Jones and The Smashing Pumpkins), electronic dance music (Dada Life, SAVOY and STS9), guitarists (Tommy Emmanuel and Jerry Douglas), country/Americana (Dead Rock West, Dwight Yoakam, Wynonna & The Big Noise and Rod Melancon) in addition to Los Angeles’ Lucha VaVOOM and the Santa Monica Twilight Concert Series, among others.
GOWEN graduated from Musicians Institute College of Contemporary Music in 2010 from the school’s Music Business Program. During college he interned in Bug Music Publishing‘s creative department and at LaFamos PR & Branding-which led to a subsequent hiring after graduation as a full time staffer-sparking his passion for public relations. Prior to working at MSO, GOWEN worked as an assistant to Grammy Award-winning Jazz legend, Stanley Clarke.
