How many people say “rock is dead” without knowing all the facts? How many people stay loyal in a business where the bottom line is sales and revenue? In the world of Munsey Ricci, loyalty and brand building are part of the job, and for 30 years, his company Skateboard Marketing has ridden the wave of being the last truly independent radio promotion company still standing. Born in Queens, NY, Munsey was a student of the game, having worked in radio and for Mercury Records (who at one time had Kiss, Rush, Def Leppard, and more). With all of his experience and work ethic, he built his company Skateboard Marketing from the ground up. To get fans connected with the metal community, he recently launched Metal Contraband as a site for metal news and tours (ran by Chelsea Nelson-Fernandez) to expand his business. Munsey is proof that with great risk and responsible management comes great reward. I recently interviewed him on his career and his company, his friendships with many artists (including the late, great Lemmy Kilmister and Ronnie James Dio), and more. Get the scoop on this industry insider that I’m proud to call a friend for over 20 years.
