CLUB DECODE

Glasgow Based Music Blog, Jan 2016 - Jan 2019

In January 2016, along with some fellow Music Business Students, I began the music blog Club Decode. As time progressed, I became the sole manager and owner of the project. Reviewing new and live music and interviewing up and coming bands, I kept the blog regularly updated.  With help from a small team of photographers and writers, Club Decode became a success and was renowned among the Glasgow and Scottish Music Scenes.

​

In January 2019, with a heavy heart I decided to stop blogging. I could no longer balance 2 jobs, uni, personal illness and dedicate the time to Club Decode that it deserved. I am extremely proud of the work I did on the blog and will continue to display my work here. Club Decode was my stepping stone into the Music Industry and helped me to begin my career. Unfortunately the original Club Decode site has been hacked and cannot be accessed. Fortunately I salvaged some work to display here.
