The Rest; Stuart Johnson.
'The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side'. Hunter S. Thompson.
Over the last forty years, Stuart has advised and assisted many organisations and individuals on a wide range of music-related matters, much of which is outlined on the home page . This work falls broadly into four categories:
- Professional Development.
- Production.
- Funding.
- Policy.
Contact stuart@stuartjohnson.co.uk for details of current projects and availability.
