BNA Records, formerly known as BNA Entertainment, is a label group that shares ties with Arista Nashville and RCA Nashville from parent company Sony Music Nashville, which itself is a subsidiary of Sony Music Entertainment. Based in Nashville, Tennessee, BNA features country music acts on its roster. The company derives its name from the IATA and ICAO airport codes for Nashville International Airport.
The label was founded by Boomer Castleman, who sold it to BMG Music in 1993.
In August 2011, Sony Nashville announced a major corporate restructuring which included the merger of Columbia Nashville into BNA.[3]
