Some big news!
After years of graft at the music game, I’ve made the transition to being fully self-employed at
@bona_fide_mgmt 🔊
I’ve not really shouted about it on my insta previously, but alongside my drumming, music mgmt and record label work - I’ve been working full-time at various PR/marketing agencies since my mid twenties, and for the last 3 years as Head of Comms for an international tech company.
Like many making their way in the music industry who have to hold down a regular job, it’s no exaggeration to say I’d be on tour playing hardcore punk shows or helping curate a dubstep rave, and the next morning be in a boardroom after 2 hours sleep chairing a meeting or leading a pitch.
I loved both parts of my professional life, as they stimulated different parts my brain on the creative and business side.
However, for years I treated them as two opposing forces that fought against each other. I have since realised that these worlds are not separate at all, and I can be in control of both and how they overlap in terms of my passion for music, businesses and storytelling.
This is a big change to remove the safety net of a steady job with a young family, and one I’ve been nervous about making, but I’m super excited and feel incredibly lucky to be able to work full-time doing what I love and collaborating with artists, people and brands I respect.
With this mindset, I’m not gonna lie that we’re ambitious for growth, so if you’re interested in your music or business brand, working with a company with true creativity and authenticity, who are real, relentless and result-driven - then do please get in touch.
Big up for listening! For more information on our various services, you can head to the website link in my bio.
Nice one 🙏
