About Us
Kick Arts UK was founded in 2019 by Barney Jeavons. Barney had worked in venues for over 30 years in various roles including arts centre director, venue tech, programmer, community outreach worker and independent promoter.
As Kick Arts UK we have booked countless brilliant shows into award winning festivals, arts centres and grassroots venues and delivered hundreds of one-to-one consultations for artists. Barney also has a long history of music management (Reuben, Dominie Hooper, Sick Joy, Chris Wood and others). The consultations we offer for musicians and other creatives benefit from all this experience and as you can see from the testimonials they seem to be very helpful (so far we have worked with agents, managers, festivals, crew, theatremakers, visual artists, comedians and more)
As ever, we aim to be the trusted friend you turn to for help, nurturing careers and offering advice and support. Collaboration is key, and together we can put the steps in place for you to achieve your artistic and financial objectives.
