The Josh Baker Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

In this podcast I am joined by Kurt Hurst. It's been highly requested to get my business partner, agent and good friend on the podcast to spill all about how we met and our steps to building Hide&Seek Festival.

Is this episode I am joined by award winning creative strategist Rory Palmer - Rowe. Rory works at Mustard Media, an Events Marketing Agency based in Manchester.

This week, myself and Rory talk about social media and how artists can use it to their advantage. We also discuss some really good strategy ideas that you might like to use for yourself!

In this episode I am joined by Mark Mcmahon, an Artist Liason for The Warehouse Project, Creamfields, JBM Music, The Royal Albert Hall and also worked for myself and the team at Hide&Seek Festival. 

Mark shares his insights about the role and gives some great advice about getting your foot in the door and working within the industry. This is a great episode and I thoroughly enjoyed chatting to Mark.

In this episode I have the pleasure of chatting to Writer, DJ and Artist Manager Elijah. He caught my attention with his yellow postit work that he has been sharing on Instagram and it was great to learn about the impact he has had on the industry and explore the topics further with him.

This week I bring a slightly different episode to normal as I am joined by Olympic Gold Medalist and retired cyclist Pete Kennaugh.

After achieving his dream at such a young age Pete has decided to start his own coaching business and learn to make music. We discuss the similarities between the sport and music industry, especially the relationship between dreams and reality. 

In this episode I had the absolute pleasure of chatting to Grego O'Halloran. Owner of UNUM festival and Head of Business Development at Jukebox PR, Grego has spent years working his way up the ladder in the music industry. His roles have ranged from flyering the streets of Ibiza back in the early 2000's to spearheading ticketing systems across the world.

He is seriously inspirational and has helped make Ibiza what it is today. I came away from this episode extremely motivated and hope you will feel the same. 

We are back and I am super happy to be joined by my man Rossi.

In this episode, we have a big catch up about his busy schedule after a long time away from the dance floors.  

Rossi has been working very hard since the pandemic and it was great to hear all about his recent South American tour, his upcoming gigs and whats in store for his brand Home Grown.

Big thanks to Rossi for joining me for the 33rd Episode.

Tristan Da Cunha steps up for episode 31! The Yorkshire legend needs little introduction after 20+ years of snappin necks and killin it on the decks all over the world.

As well as his solo project, he's also is 1/2 of Dungeon Meat whilst also getting freaky under his Freakenstien alias which gravitates towards electro vibes.

Keep your eyes peeled this summer as he joins me for two shows, one at You&Me and the other Hide&Seek Festival.

For episode 30 I chat to French born, modern day house legend Brawther.

It's crazy how the world works, all the way back in 2013 the first record I ever purchased was created by this guy under his Paris Underground Trax moniker. Who'd have thought 8 years on we'd be reflecting on this in a podcast?

He know resides in Lisbon and we chat all about that in this podcast along with how his Dungeon Meat project with Tristan da Cunha was formed. You'll also hear about Brawther's influences and what he's been up to over the last 12 months. 

He is an artist I really admire and respect so it was a privilege to get to know him!
