Glasgowmusic Newsletter 030914

Hello, how are you?


Finally a newsletter, apologies for them being every few weeks recently. It has turned into a very busy Summer work and personal wise. However I understand a few of you like to know where your local skiffle bands are playing on a Tuesday night and always appreciate new music. So without further ado!

Due to it being a couple of weeks since the last letter there is plenty of news below to keep you entertained! As always if you saw it in here then please mention you did.


Earlier in the year I setup my own Events Company booking Entertainment, Staffing and Structures for Commercial and Private clients. It has been great fun and have been working on various, challenging and entertaining projects throughout the year. Magners, Rekorderlig, Skyride, Foodies, Holi One. ONeills, G13 and Glasgow Life (Commonwealth Games / Festival 2014) are just some of my clients. If you have an event and would like some help with it then please get in touch.


I am away to a beach in the Indian Ocean for a couple of weeks, I will speak to you on my return

Best wishes!
