Nicole Ormerod is manager of The Gulls, working behind the scenes to develop the band’s career and grow their audience.
From creating opportunities and building their profile to navigating the realities of the music industry, Nicole is helping The Gulls build a sustainable independent career without the backing of a major label.
What do you do when the usual route into the music industry isn’t working? If you’re The Gulls, you move into a motorhome, busk your way around the country and start creating your own opportunities.
Brighton-based rock n’ rollers The Gulls will kick off this Hour with a few tracks live, before sharing what it really takes to make a living from music today. Alongside their manager Nicole Ormerod and legendary music agent Russell Lewis Warby, they’ll talk about standing out, building a following, making your own opportunities and doing things differently in an industry that never stands still.
Chaired by Richard James Butt from Blank Canvas Music, expect live music, stories from the road and a peek behind the curtain of making it in music today.
