I've never been afraid to do any job that needs to be done in the course of musical activity and events, which I believe has given me insight to a variety of the workings of the music industry. I am well informed and have researched a wide variety of legal and business issues in relation to the Music Industry and am well versed with copyright issues. I am widely known in Bristol’s music scene and have good relationships with many of Bristol's music venues, performers and producers and have also been musically active in other UK cities.

Experience: Over ten years practical experience in the music industry and four years experience in community development. I have spent seven years conducting strategic research into Bristol's local music scene for the Umbrella MELTS project and have uncovered some remarkable facts. My music industry experience includes: producing and managing bands and events, producing and composing music and performing with a variety of music groups. I have had CSV, New Deal, and practical based business training and mentoring, and have worked closely with community development organizations including the Avon CDA, BACEN, BEST, Brave, Bridging the Gap, Bristol City Council, and have made contact with countless other community and arts related organizations in the past few years, and with music development organizations including the Musicians Union, New Deal for Musicians, Bristol Sound, and various night clubs and venues. I have also contributed towards several local community festivals including St Pauls Carnival and Easton Community Festival (Under One Sky) as Main Stage Manager and as assistant stage manager for the second stage at Bristol Community Festival. I have co-ordinated over contless medium sized events including the 2001 Blue Fusion weekend music festival at the New Trinity Centre, which attracted the involvement of over 250 local artists. As part of Umbrella MELTS activities I have co-ordinated and staged a series of music production workshops with local voluntary sector organisations such as a Young Bristol Action and their Millennium volunteers scheme and with the St Paul's Unlimited partnership and Easton and Lawrence Hill Neighbourhood Renewal. During these workshops I worked in multi cultural environments and geographical areas of deprivation with children and young people aged between 18 and 25 and 8 to 18 years. During these workshops I developed the participants awareness of and enthusiasm for I.T., the music business and music technology and gave some insight and the advice on developing their musical skills further with specific reference to career paths. I have also helped run a local recording and event management agency known as Blue Fusion and which had a 17 tracks compilation album released and over 20 music groups on the books.

I have a detailed knowledge of desktop publishing and office software and the Internet in terms of its use as an information resource, marketing tools, exhibition space, project management tools, and on-line database systems. the majority of this knowledge gained in the practical experience of managing the building the website www.letsmakemusic.org.
Software experience: I am able to use a great number of software systems and programmes on a variety of platforms including the PC Linux, Windows and Apple Macintosh MacOS .

GENERAL
I thoroughly enjoy working with a diverse range of people through the medium of music and enjoy teaching and learning new skills and developing mutually beneficial relationships. I passionately enjoy teaching and working with others, and seeing them grow and develop.
From the age of 12 I have been intimately involved in the music industry and have tried as many roles within the music industry as have been possible, I began as a guitarist and am presently reasonably well practised on guitar, I am an experienced performer, I have experience writing and producing songs in a variety of genre including various forms of electronic dance music, hip hop, jazz, Funk, rock and pop, I have performed, stage-managed, promoted, and produce a large number of events of varying sizes including live music showcases, dance-music club nights, festivals, and touring performances for local, national and internationally renown artists, I have produced and managed a number of bands the largest of being a 13 member live dance sound-system including instrumentation such as guitar's, keybord's, electronic samples, Sitar, Didgery do, drums etc. and have comprehensive audio recording experience in a variety of genre and techniques including, classical string and brass instruments, vocals, drums and Percussion. I've never been afraid to do any job that needs to be done in the course of musical activity and events, which I believe has given me insight to a variety of the workings of the music industry. I am well informed and have researched a wide variety of legal and business issues in relation to the Music Industry and am well versed with copyright issues.
I am widely known in Bristol’s music scene and have good relationships with many of Bristol's music venues, performers and producers and have also been musically active in other UK cities. I have been involved in the operation of Glastonbury and other national and local music Festival's since the age of 12.
I presently regularly practise and am reasonably competent on acoustic, electric and Bass guitar, Didgery Do, Piano and synthesisers, DJ Decks, various electronic instruments including sequencers, Drum machines and computers and I sometimes-even play a Carpenter's saw.
For the past six years I have been working with Bristol's inner-city communities using the arts as a tool for economic as social regeneration.
Currently: I Manage the Trinity Centre with Trinity Community Arts Ltd a company I cofounded in 2002 and am currently also the Company Secutary and Entertainments Licencee for. I also co-ordinate Umbrella MELTS, Bristol and the worlds first musician's time exchange project. For the past 3years I have also been leading on the Save Trinity campaign which has been very successful in resetablishing the Trinity Centre as the South Wests leading, Community, Youth and Arts Centre.
Experience: Over ten years practical experience in the music industry and four years experience in community development. I have spent seven years conducting strategic research into Bristol's local music scene for the Umbrella MELTS project and have uncovered some remarkable facts.
My music industry experience includes: producing and managing bands and events, producing and composing music and performing with a variety of music groups. I have had CSV, New Deal, and practical based business training and mentoring, and have worked closely with community development organizations including the Avon CDA, BACEN, BEST, Brave, Bridging the Gap, Bristol City Council, and have made contact with countless other community and arts related organizations in the past few years, and with music development organizations including the Musicians Union, New Deal for Musicians, Bristol Sound, and various night clubs and venues. I have also contributed towards several local community festivals including St Pauls Carnival and Easton Community Festival (Under One Sky) as Main Stage Manager and as assistant stage manager for the second stage at Bristol Community Festival. I have co-ordinated over contless medium sized events including the 2001 Blue Fusion weekend music festival at the New Trinity Centre, which attracted the involvement of over 250 local artists.
As part of Umbrella MELTS activities I have co-ordinated and staged a series of music production workshops with local voluntary sector organisations such as a Young Bristol Action and their Millennium volunteers scheme and with the St Paul's Unlimited partnership and Easton and Lawrence Hill Neighbourhood Renewal. During these workshops I worked in multi cultural environments and geographical areas of deprivation with children and young people aged between 18 and 25 and 8 to 18 years. During these workshops I developed the participants awareness of and enthusiasm for I.T., the music business and music technology and gave some insight and the advice on developing their musical skills further with specific reference to career paths.
I have also helped run a local recording and event management agency known as Blue Fusion and which had a 17 tracks compilation album released and over 20 music groups on the books.
At present I am also part of an e-mail base development network for the UK Time bank network organisation, Time Bank UK and Bristol Interlets which are both part of the Social Economy drive of central government.
