Stuart Kirkham Profile Picture

About me

I am a highly professional senior music publicist with over 20 years experience.

 

With an extensive knowledge of music and genres from over the past 50 years, I specialise in working with artists that have a recording history, be they prolific or of cult status. Attention to detail and understanding an artist’s career has seen me establish a proven track record in delivering creative campaigns across print, online and radio platforms.

 

My expertise in catalogue and reissue releases has led to me working with an impressive range of highly influential and iconic artists; Kraftwerk, Ennio Morricone, Sly & The Family Stone, Marc Almond, Nilsson, The Associates, Miles Davis, Ronnie Spector, Johnny Cash, Alan Parsons, The Isley Brothers, Iggy & The Stooges, Jerry Lee Lewis, The Verve, Santana, Chess Records, Blue Note Records, Fabio Frizzi, Cliff Martinez, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Slade, Georgie Fame and other legacy figures.

 

An avid record collector and DJ with a particular affection for soul, funk, jazz, disco, psych and soundtracks, I have a long history of spinning vinyl including a warm-up slot for the Charlatans at Wembley Arena, guest appearances at London’s cooler club nights and several band after-shows including nick cave and the bad seeds
