      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.

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.
