OUR AIM

Smash PR believes there is a gap in the crowded promotions market for an efficient, cost effective and economical company delivering the profile you need in today's 24 hour multi-dimensional media environment.

Our experience covers a whole range of music genre's from around the world and after 20 years in the music business can draw on a wealth of music business contacts not only here in the UK but through Europe and North America.

We charge economical prices and offer packages that will compete with many pr companies who charge exorbitant rates.

The three basic services we offer provides new artists a transparent 'set fee' as opposed to costly monthly retainers and this 'set fee' would last for the duration of any campaign whether it be 4 weeks, 6 weeks or two months.

Enhanced and specially nuanced campaigns are also available to artists. Please enquire for a specialised quote.

In 1996 he set up his own operation called, 'Smash Press' and worked in close association with V2/Gee Street artists such as The Jungle Brothers, Gravediggaz and Luaka Bop featuring Zap Mama but also worked with Sony signed artist, Finley Quaye, The Stereo MC's label Response Records, R&S's Manna and the K7 label featuring Princess Superstar. He also worked with Just Jack on his first album, 'The Outer Marker' and with Rae & Christian on their album, 'Sleepwalking'. TVT enlisted Nick's help in co-ordinating a re-release campaign featuring some of the hardest rocking bands of recent years such as Sevendust, Nothingface and Guided By Voices.

Over the years 'Smash' has worked with artists and labels as varied as The Blue Van, Voodoo Six, The Beauty Shop, Gil Scott Heron, Rachid Taha, Death Row Records, Pink Floyd, Boyz II Men, Afroman, Flavor Flav, The Golden Dogs, Sophie Milman, The Sam Roberts Band and Romanian rapper, Miss Platnum.

Recently a stint at Impressive PR took Nick into radio and TV promotions where he worked with the likes of The Butthole Surfers, Paul Oakenfold, The Legend Of Yeti Gonzalez, Hue And Cry and Converse. After a wide variety of projects including rock bands such as Sherwood and Koopa, the SE London reggae/hip hop grooves of Jimmy Screech and 'The Legends Of Motown Tour' and 'The Best Of British Variety Tour', Nick decided the next step was to re-launch and re-brand 'Smash Press' where the emphasis was on bespoke pr campaigns to suit every budget.
