Blackbird Media

Blackbird Media is an independent out-of-home advertising company founded in 2015 by chief executive Chenault Sanders and headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee. The company describes itself as the largest independent out-of-home media operator in Tennessee and one of the largest in the Southeast, controlling premium static and digital billboard inventory across the Nashville and Atlanta markets. Its portfolio includes more than forty-five displays and is anchored by two landmark digital spectaculars: The Nashville Sign, a large digital display at the Broadway and West End Avenue split in downtown Nashville that launched in 2016, and The Atlanta Sign, a massive digital billboard overlooking Centennial Olympic Park in downtown Atlanta, which Blackbird acquired in 2019.

These flagship properties give the company high-profile placements in two major Southeastern cities and serve as centerpieces for connecting national brands with local audiences. Blackbird relies heavily on digital technology to create distinctive advertising experiences, enabling dynamic creative, rotating campaigns, and flexible scheduling on its digital faces while maintaining traditional static bulletins for advertisers seeking constant exposure. The company positions its unique model and marquee inventory as a way for brands to build presence in the communities they serve, emphasizing quality locations over sheer scale.

Serving advertisers ranging from local businesses to national campaigns, Blackbird Media combines landmark digital spectaculars with a curated set of premium billboards, offering out-of-home exposure concentrated in the high-traffic cores of Nashville and Atlanta across Tennessee and Georgia.
