Michael Golden Joins 4Wall Entertainment as VP of Live Events

4Wall Entertainment has named Michael Golden as its new vice president of live events. With a career spanning over four decades, Golden brings experience of large-scale productions for music legends like Alabama and Kenny Rogers. His most recent work saw him managing productions and tours for Garth Brooks, Carrie Underwood, Alanis Morissette, Toby Keith, Alan Jackson, and Alice Cooper. The company notes that Golden is widely recognized for pushing the boundaries of production standards in live entertainment, influencing the scale and complexity seen in today's touring shows.

Explaining his move to 4Wall, Golden says, "Nashville has many great production companies, but 4Wall's name kept coming up -- specifically the quality of their gear and, more importantly, their people. I kept hearing positive feedback and seeing press that highlighted their outstanding service. Over time, it became undeniable that 4Wall has built an impeccable reputation in the production community.

"Having 13 offices across the US, as well as offices overseas, allows 4Wall to operate as one unified team, supporting global projects seamlessly," he notes "What's also incredibly impressive is the company's commitment to staying current with technology and offering everything -- lighting, video, rigging and more -- under one roof. The internal network is fantastic; the whole company works together cohesively, which is a huge asset for clients."

Brian Luftig, general manager of 4Wall's Southeast Region, says, "The 4Wall Nashville team is thrilled to bring Mike Golden aboard. His deep industry knowledge and extensive experience are invaluable. As he starts this next chapter, we know his expertise, particularly in touring, will be crucial in strengthening our Nashville presence and enhancing our customer service."

"I was genuinely stunned by the scale of preparation for the recent NFL Draft right here at our Nashville facility," Golden says. "Seeing 32 trucks worth of gear delivered and executed flawlessly across multiple locations was remarkable. It showcased the team's incredible capabilities and attention to detail. Honestly, I'm not sure I've ever seen that volume of gear perform so perfectly from a single company in my entire career."

Brad Hafer, senior VP. of global live events, adds, "Bringing Michael onto our team underscores our direction and ambition in continuing to add the best people. Golden's stellar reputation and unmatched experience will significantly boost our capabilities in Nashville and around the country and will help drive our future growth in live events."

Golden concludes, "I'm genuinely proud to join 4Wall and work alongside some of the most talented people in the business. My goal is simply to uphold and build upon the high standards and stellar reputation this exceptional team has already established."
