  Music and events promoter

  Two spells at The Spitz. My first of 7 years ended in 2004 when I took a break to go freelance. In that time, I'd built the company's profile to one of international recognition, booking and marketing innovative and cutting edge events. Primarily music. My second spell was 6 months in 2007, seeing out the final gigs before the venue was forced to shut by redevelopment of Old Spitalfields Market. I continue to work as a consultant publicist.
