CHARLOTTE, N.C., Dec. 15, 2020 /PRNewsCentre/ — Webber Marketing and Consulting, LLC (WMC), creators of the Cracker Barrel National Battle of the Bands (NBOTB) and the largest marketing agency of record for HBCUs, teams up with Forward Media Partners (FMP) to support the development and distribution of NBOTB and HBCU related programming.
The programming slate will include a National Battle of the Bands "Salute to HBCU Marching Bands" syndicated limited TV series to launch in February 2021, in addition to a series of events and digital distribution of full-length episodes and highlights of the NBOTB. This cross-platform approach will reach tens of millions of users who passionately follow HBCU events and are excited to have unique access to HBCU bands beyond the physical boarders of an in-person event.
