After years spent touring the world with artists like Rihanna, Calvin Harris, Miley Cyrus, and the Scorpions, Jon Bumgarner is coming home to Greensboro. The veteran production professional has joined The Pyrle as its new Production Manager, bringing decades of global experience to one of the city’s most exciting creative venues.

A North Carolina native, Bumgarner first discovered his love for live events through the music scene in Winston-Salem, where he worked local concerts and festivals before moving on to major international tours. 

Now, he’s eager to help grow Greensboro’s expanding live music and arts community. At The Pyrle, he’ll oversee all production operations, ensuring every performance delivers the kind of world-class experience that’s defined his career.

When he’s not behind the scenes, you’ll likely find him hiking nearby trails or grabbing a beer at Little Brother Brewing, reconnecting with the local creative community that helped spark it all.
