WORK HISTORY
Producer and Host of the Stageleft Podcast @Spotify
I have been host & producer of the learning and development focused The StageLeft Podcast since 2015. Here, I have conducting over 110 in-depth interviews with industry leaders to pass knowledge on to the next generation of artists with the aim of providing an equal playing field in regards to equitable access to development opportunities.Guests have included members of Oasis, Guns N Roses, Gorillaz, Kraftwerk, Bastille and The 1975. David Bowie was a listener and chose to exclusively utilise us for his final album release, which resulted in The Guardian crediting the podcast 5 out of 5 stars.I was also asked by John Waugh of the Grammy nominated The 1975 to write the foreword for his book ‘Jazz Improvisation Basic Training.’ I hosted the live music nights at the prestigious Groucho Club in Soho, London between 20••••20, which sadly stopped due to Covid, and have hosted live Masterclasses with The 1975 and Bastille.
