Our long history:

Porter Entertainment booking agency was founded, owned and operated by Jim Porter from 1958 to 2001. He was inducted into the Arkansas Entertainers Hall of Fame in 2005, after serving on its board from 1996 until 2004. Though Mr. Porter retired from day-to-day involvement in booking, his vast experience and expertise continue to contribute to the agency.

Tim Jones joined the agency in 1991. He brings a life-long passion for music to the agency, plus years of experience in radio broadcasting, musical program direction, and writing about music for the Arkansas Times, Nightflying, and other publications. Jones was the Entertainment Director/Talent Buyer for the popular nightclub Smitty's in Little Rock from 1992 until 2002. In 2001, he assumed ownership of Porter Entertainment, and the name of the agency was changed to Porter-Jones Entertainment. He has a long-term relationship with the festival committee and staff at one of the state's largest festival events, Little Rock's "Riverfest." Jones has booked approximately 250 local, regional, and national acts for the festival since 1998. Tim also maintains productive relationships with literally hundreds of local and national musicians, as well as production companies, performance venues, recording studios, DJ services, personal managers, and national booking agencies.
