Bill Lowery (record producer)
Bill Lowery (October 21, 1924 – June 8, 2004) was an American music entrepreneur.
==Early successes==
Lowery was born in Leesville, Louisiana. He studied radio dramatics at Taft Junior College and went on to a number of radio-announcing jobs. At age 21 he was hired to direct the construction and programming of WBEJ, a radio station in Elizabethton, Tennessee.〔Miller, Zell (1996). (''They Heard Georgia Singing'' ), p. 194. Mercer University Press.〕
In the early 1950s, Lowery was the top country music disc jockey in America. He also was a pioneer TV host on Atlanta television. A diagnosis of cancer in 1951 (which he ultimately survived) left Lowery wondering how to provide for his family, and he decided to go into the music publishing business.〔Daniel, Wayne W. (2001). (''Pickin' on Peachtree: A History of Country Music in Atlanta, Georgia'' ), pp. 225-26. University of Illinois Press.〕 Although the music industry told Lowery that no music company could be based anywhere but New York, Chicago, Nashville, or Los Angeles, he believed that Atlanta could be a true music city. Together with an associate, Dennis "Boots" Woodall, Lowery formed Lowery Music Company and was involved in independent record production and promotion. Early hit songs published by Lowery Music included a string of country music hits for major labels, but two of the most notable Lowery Music songs were early rockabilly hits: "Be Bop A Lula" by Gene Vincent & His Blue Caps, and "Young Love", recorded by both Sonny James and movie actor Tab Hunter. Lowery is credited with being involved in the earliest recordings of Ray Stevens and Jerry Reed for Capitol Records.
