This week, join the Chapters Team as we talk through the journey so far. Explaining our why, dealing with musicians, the brand and where we want to get to.

The idea of Chapters is centred in the search to understand an individual. The Podcast is aimed at providing opportunities for guests to share stories, moments or life events that they feel have shaped who they are, memorable experiences that acted as defining or pivotal moments in either their careers or personal journeys. These experiences, or Chapters, may not reflect what the guest is working on at the moment, but should reflect what has helped them become who they are.

Through the sharing of their own experiences, the guests of Chapters will be provided with the opportunity to engage with a wider audience, but also for the audience to relate more personally with the guest. Expressing their personalities and individualities freely and sharing potentially lesser known experiences will allow for the audience to see beyond the musician, the artist, the figure within business, and focus on the person.
