2009 Staff Reduction
In February 2009, due to corporate restructuring at Concord Music Group, Telarc announced it would cut twenty-six jobs and that it would also stop producing its own recordings. These job cuts included the highly-regarded, multi-award winning production team. Telarc's founder and former president Robert Woods resigned in March 2009 and was replaced by Heads Up president Dave Love. Love was subsequently let go the following month. Four key members of the Telarc production team – Grammy-award winning engineers Michael Bishop and Robert Friedrich, Grammy-award winning producer Thomas Moore, and chief technician Bill McKinney – formed the independent production company, Five/Four Productions, Ltd.
