Improving your online presence

In the dynamic world of music, where reaching your audience is vital, your online presence is nearly as important as the quality of your creativity. Need some help getting it right? Contact me.

Whether you have your own website, or a page linked to a record label or agency, a LinkedIn profile or sell online, the words you use are critical to explaining a little about who you are.

Just as you create great music, I create outstanding, eye-catching and memorable content.


My experience of various writing styles, formats and techniques will help attract and engage your audience and help you convert them into loyal customers.


One of the advantages of working with me is that I am a writer, podcaster and musician, so I can bring a fresh perspective and insight to enhance your content.


As a musician, your time is best spent concentrating on the music, leaving me to describe you, your music and why the audience should listen.


Whatever your deadline (and if you don’t have one, I can help create one), you’ll find that I am flexible and can produce the words you need, when you need them.


In the days of algorithms and key words, I can help incorporate the phrases and language to ensure you are discovered by a potential audience - often before they hear your music.

Piano Man  brings a selection of original and covers, including a stunning version of Autumn Leaves , which reinvents the song as the funky, electronic Autumn . Big Wade's voice takes the song's melody and improvises around and around, with backing vocals and a deliberately sparse arrangement underpinning the song. Similarly, on Children of the Ghetto , the lead and backing vocals blend in with the soulful musicians of Black Swan Theory. Electronics are used with dexterity, often expanding the vocal lines, as in the ethereal and ghostly opening of Don't Let Me Go . However, the tools never dominate - simply adding depth and layers to the funk. Never more than when Big Wade enters a new world in Interludes , including vocals...

Playtime: 'Morse Code Through The Lights'

Every once in a while, an album drops into your inbox and isn't going anywhere. Morse Code Through The Lights is just such an album. Incontrovertibly controversial, this won't be everyone's cup of tea, but this one has absolutely, instantly, made it onto my list of top albums of 2024. Drummer Tom Bancroft and his band Playtime, which began in Edinburgh as Adventures in New Music ten years ago as a weekly session, have produced something delightfully experimental and brilliantly creative. Four of Scotland's most-established jazz musicians - Martin Kershaw (sax), Graeme Stephen (guitar), Mario Caribe (bass) and Tom Bancroft (drums) - tried out new music and new ideas together. Once lockdown struck in 2020, they decided to explore the possibilities of improvising music together online, partly for something to do, and partly because it was something they could do for their audience. Most of us discovered - or thought we had - that improvising online was difficult or impossi...
