Live Music Promotion by Big Head Media
Gigs - Shows - Promotion

(please not we are currently having a break from gigs and shows. We are interested in gig swops only at this point)

One of the initial reasons for setting up 'Big Head Media' was because of our passion for talented bands/artists. By the setting up and promotion of gigs/shows for talented new bands/artists and established bands currently on the live circuit, we provide a platform for new artists to get their material heard by a wider audience.

Unlike most promoters, we book bands purely on how we merit their ability. Even if your band is not the biggest crowd puller, if we feel you're good enough and we like you, we'll give you a gig. The reason we can do this is because we have developed a great working relationship with talented local bands which can pull a crowd in to a venue and will put these bands on with a new band that we like. We usually only promote at weekends except in special cases. It takes a bit more organising and we do put on less gigs than most promoters but the gigs we put on are usually succesful and are often a bit more meaningful.

Our Aim
To promote talented up coming bands/artists from around the UK with a view to connecting them with other bands/artists, managers, promoters and labels around the UK. Our ethos behind this is (believe it or not) purely because of our passion for what we call 'proper' music and will do what we can to help give the right kind of artists the platform they need.

Bands/Artists from around the UK/Outside Cambridge
If you've ever tried getting gigs in other towns or set up your own tour then you'll know how difficuilt it can be to persuade promoters to take a chance on you. If you're a talented band with a bit of a following and are looking to play Cambridge, then we can help you out. We'll put you on with a well known Cambridge act that we like. That way you get the benefit of an away gig with a larger audience than you might get normally. In return we would ask that you let the band you played with in Cambridge support you in your local town at a gig organised by us or you or another concenting promoter.

Due to the nature of the gigs we organise the number of shows we put on is limited. For this reason, we are really only interested in putting on bands of a high standard in the genre of rock/indie/alternative.
