Primco Management Engages Legendary Music Producer Mike Clink Of Guns N’ Roses Fame To Produce Debut Album Of “Downtown Attraction” For ESMG

Primco Management Inc., a fully integrated multi-media entertainment company, today announced that legendary music producer Mike Clink will produce the Debut Album for ESMG’s new and emerging alternative rock band, “Downtown Attraction.” ESMG has entered into a multi-year/multi-album deal to produce and distribute original music written and performed by the breakthrough alternative LA-based rock band “Downtown Attraction,” for release through the ESMG/Top Sail Productions output deal with WEA/Warner Music Group.

Mike Clink started his career as an engineer at Record Plant Studios, recording such bands as Triumph, Guns N’ Roses, MφtleyCrόe, Megadeth, UFO (including Strangers in the Night), Jefferson Starship, The Babys, Heart, Eddie Money and many others. In 1986, Mike produced the release of Guns N’ Roses’ debut album, “Appetite for Destruction.” Mr. Clink’s collaboration with Guns N’ Roses sold a combined total of over 90 million albums. In 1989, Mr. Clink produced the critically acclaimed self-titled debut album of the Sea Hags followed by Megadeth’s blockbuster “Rust in Peace.” Dave Mustaine wrote in the Remaster’s Notebook that Mike Clink produced albums which influenced him as a guitar player. Mr. Clink has been involved in a variety of projects including the live half-time show for Super Bowl XXXV that featured Aerosmith, ‘N Sync, Nelly, and Britney Spears.

“We are extremely excited to have a producer of Mike Clink’s caliber in our camp. Mike sees ‘Downtown Attraction’ as a cutting edge, contemporary rock band and expects great things from them. To have Mike on board with his wealth of experience and talent is a major coup for ESMG and Primco. We anticipate that the first singles from the new album will be released later this year, with the full Album released in early 2014,” said David Michery, President and CEO, Primco Management Inc. “We are confident that the ‘Downtown Attraction’ record will be a major seller and will be the first of several highly successful albums from the band and Mike Clink as producer.”
