New Capital, Strategic Partnerships, and Industry Leadership Fuel Dreamliner's Growth Beyond Touring Roots

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Aug. 22, 2025 -- Dreamliner Luxury Coaches, the nation's leading provider of full-service event transportation logistics for the entertainment industry, announced strategic growth investment from BBH Capital Partners Private Equity (BBHCP), of Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (BBH). In conjunction with the BBHCP investment, Dreamliner has entered into a new strategic partnership with Clair Global, a leader in live production services, systems integration, and cutting-edge audio technology.

With the BBHCP investment and Clair Global partnership, Brad Langer (Partner of BBH and Co-Manager of BBHCP), Matt Salsbury (Principal of BBH and Co-Manager of BBHCP), and Troy Clair (CEO of Clair Global) will join Dreamliner's Board of Directors. Their combined expertise and industry relationships strengthen Dreamliner's industry influence while providing strategic insight, operational capabilities, and capital to accelerate the company's expansion beyond touring coaches.

Recently ranked #100 on this year's Inc. 5000 list of the fastest growing private companies in America, Dreamliner is well-positioned to set new benchmarks in entertainment touring logistics. The addition of BBH's expertise and Clair Global's unmatched industry perspective ensures Dreamliner can further scale operations and enhance client offerings to meet the growing demand across entertainment and other industries.

"This is a pivotal moment for our company," says Dreamliner Founder and CEO Rich Thomson. "Adding seasoned experts and a strategic presence to our Board not only strengthens our financial position and industry relationships, but also expands our operational capabilities, further enhancing the experience for our clients and accelerating our expansion beyond artist coach leasing."

Grounded in a decades-long track record of partnering with founder-owned, growth-stage companies, BBHCP will bring significant capital and financial, operational, and strategic resources to Dreamliner. The BBHCP team has deep experience in helping scale founder-owned businesses that operate in attractive, growth-oriented sectors in North America.

Brad Langer commented, "The tailwinds for continued growth in the live entertainment industry are compelling and the investment in Dreamliner marks an exciting opportunity to partner with a high-caliber, owner-managed business that is poised for significant growth."
