Just landed myself some work experience with one of my favourite PR companies purely through the knowledge and contact base I have developed through the blog. Massive confidence boost!
@Jason Wow, congrats and great work with the site!
One of my writers just did an extremely thorough and interesting article with The Calm Blue Sea here. Yayblog for us because the band reached out after one of their songs was included in a playlist we made. I always love when opportunities like that just come along.. feels refreshing.
We dd an interview with Ben Lear who released the album Lillian: A Folk Opera earlier this year. It came out really well with him going very in depth on several of our questions. You can check it out here.
Following on from doing BBC 6 Music's Introducing show a couple of weeks ago, I got interviewed on German state radio today about The Blue Walrus, new music, and my good self.
If anyone fancies listening in then head over to http://on3.de at 4.40pm BST
Yeah it is pretty surreal - but apparently they relatively regularly do a digital/blogs section (which I didn't know because I don;t speak German) and they read the Walrus... I love that geography means less and less these days.
Just like Blue Walrus and Faded Glamour before me, I got asked to curate/DJ a new live night, but this time in Exeter. Really excited to have a nice step up and to branch out a bit form the day to day bloggery stuff.
