Arny Granat commented, "Over the past four decades, I have enjoyed a career that has allowed me to work with some of the biggest stars on the most memorable concerts, including the Rolling Stones, Adele, Prince and Frank Sinatra, as well as awe inspiring theater productions, and other unforgettable events. I am looking forward to producing and promoting shows throughout the country in association with other partners and collaborators."

Granat is working on a number of projects with Outback Concerts and Jam Theatricals, which under Granat's co-direction has received a total of ten Tony Awards and managed subscription seasons in 27 cities.
