GIG PROMOTION

Barney promoted his first gig at 6th form and in the decades since has promoted gigs with audiences of 1200 and less than 20 - he truly knows the highs and lows!

Music he's promoted includes Snow Patrol, The Unthanks, Biffy Clyro, The 1975, Martin Simpson, Songhoy Blues, Architects, Foals, Frank Turner, Declan McKenna, The Selector and more, plus small scale theatre and household names from the world of comedy from James Acaster to Rosie Jones.

Forthcoming gigs for 2026 include Amelia Coburn, Nick Harper and The Gymkhana - all co-promotions with his friend Chris at Jasta 11 - and he is just as excited about it as he was 30 years ago.
