Wozzy's Experience

I have been managing The Midi Music Company since 1995 working with emerging talent to deliver events, music education programmes, music business seminars, creative industries careers advice, international youth arts initiatives in Germany, Italy, Ireland, Lithuania, USA and Mauritius. I have been managing bands since 2010 and was also previously the House Manager for The Albany Empire in Deptford coordinating events in the theatre covering music, dance, film and performing arts. I enjoy supporting emerging artists to understand the music business and how to maximise their music income, coordinate gigs and tour logistics, and release new music.
