R&R Productions is an organization that provides entertainment in the Triad and surrounding cities and states. R&R represents the organizers Rahsul "Rock" Burney and Richard "Rick" Powell, both residents of Greensboro, NC. Our enterprise was founded in 1997 to provide a unique level of quality entertainment as well as event planning. Between the two organizers, there is a combined 40 years of experience in the entertainment field. We are proud to say that our close attention to detail in event planning has made R&R Productions a recognizable force in our local, state, and national entertainment arena. As entertainment specialists, we handle everything from long-range planning to last minute particulars. In fact, we pay close attention to every detail of your function to ensure a comfortable and classy atmosphere in which everyone can enjoy.
Out target market is the professional, adult consumer of music entertainment. We promote concerts, comedy shows, parties and special events. We provide consultation and coordination efforts for consumers' planned occasions, such as weddings, conventions, conferences, outdoor events, etc. We are best known, however, for "A Touch of Live Jazz, Smooth R&B," which we currently promote every 3rd Thursday of the month at George K's Skyroom & Lounge, located at 2108 Cedar Fork Rd, Greensboro, NC (the corner of Holden & High Point Rd.)t. The goal of this event is to provide the community with live Jazz, R&B, Neo Soul and more using groups from the Triad & surrounding areas, as well as occasionally bringing in National recording artist. Our event provides a relaxing atmosphere after work with socializing and networking opportunities.

We also travel outside of the Triad to places such as Raleigh/Durham, Richmond, Atlanta, Jacksonville, and Columbia, in which we provided all the official entertainment for the MEAC Basketball Tournament, as well as concerts, concert after parties, and special events.
R&R Productions is also active in the community. We have sponsored food drives to feed the needy, which were extremely successful. We partnered up with 97.1QMG during the summer to sponsor a "Family Day," which we created, that is also known as "The Stone Soul Picnic." This event visits area parks in the Triad and surrounding areas and provides free entertainment. Another station event created by R&R Productions is the 97.1QMG Old School Party Tour, which travels to all of the cities in the station’s listening area. The majority of our events are held in upscale intimate environments, such as hotel ballrooms, theaters, convention centers, and special event centers with .our bigger events being held at colisuems, amphitheater, stadiums,etc. |
