Concert Stuff Group Welcomes Loud & Clear, Inc.

Concert Stuff Group, a collective of live event production companies, announces that Loud & Clear, Inc., a full-service production company based in Cincinnati, Ohio, is joining its portfolio of brands. This strategic move further expands Concert Stuff Group's footprint across the US, the company says, reinforcing its position as a top-tier provider of end-to-end solutions for the live entertainment industry.

Founded by industry veteran Bill Deavers, Loud & Clear, Inc. has been serving artists, venues, and events for over three decades with a relentless commitment to craftsmanship, integrity, and service. Deavers' journey began after a football scholarship and college career were cut short by a life-altering motorcycle accident, where he next found himself drawn to performing in several bands as a lead vocalist. With roots in music and a need for gear he couldn't afford, he built his own equipment in his mother's barn -- a humble beginning that grew into a thriving company. By the late 1980s, Bill had expanded into his first warehouse in downtown Cincinnati and began touring with legendary acts like Cinderella, Ronnie James Dio, Whitesnake, KISS, and many more. Then went on to mixing monitors for Diana Ross and Julio Iglesias.

After years on the road, Bill chose to stop touring in order to focus on starting a family and building Loud & Clear, Inc.

Under Deavers' leadership, Loud & Clear, Inc. evolved into a fully integrated production house, offering professional-grade audio, lighting, staging, roof, rigging, and support services. A pivotal moment in his career came in 2002, during a Billy Graham stadium event, where he met SES's Jim Brammer -- forming a bond rooted in mutual respect, faith, and shared values that now extends into this new chapter under the Concert Stuff Group umbrella.

"Loud & Clear, Inc. is more than a production company -- it's a family," says Deavers. "We've built a culture of servant leadership, accountability, and trust. Joining Concert Stuff Group allows us to continue growing while staying true to who we are."

"Bill brings a sense of pride, teamwork, and passion to the live event space. We have worked together for years, and this was the natural progression of creating the bigger family," says Jim Brammer, CEO of CSG. "We couldn't be happier to have a new partner in Bill and his Loud & Clear, Inc. team."
