Following a break from the pro audio scene, Hames is ready for this new challenge, commenting: "I have kept in touch with some old industry friends, following the news in the world of PA. I've even played keyboard with some of them! Now, I'm really looking forward to carrying out my new role, being in the thick of it once more, meeting new customers and becoming part of making their jobs happen. PLASA Focus in Leeds this year confirmed to me that this is where my heart is."
Managing director at LMC Audio, Paul Hinkly says: "We're delighted that Sean has returned to the industry and has chosen LMC Audio as his route to do so. We have a fantastic 20-year history of working together. His depth of experience in all things Live Audio, his determination to achieve the best result for the customer, the way he acts as a catalyst in creating links between customers and their own work prospects - these are all aspects that embrace our philosophy at LMC. This role will further strengthen the depth and quality of premium audio business transacted in the North - for all."
Hames' role will emphasise product-training and growing customers' individual businesses, initially, in the North East of England. He comments: "Living on the North East Coast, I'm on-hand to provide direct support to help make the equipment an easy hands-on experience for our customers - in all aspects of trying out and using kit, and facilitating the buying bit. I can't wait to get out into my own local area and really make a difference to the people working in audio here."
