SOUND & VISION is a brand new concept in music marketing - for too long the artist, the director, the label and the PR firm have acted in isolation. Now we are offering a unique joined up way of thinking. In full consultation with the musical artist and labels, we offer a range of value for money services to fit your requirements, the music video, and the promotional campaign you are looking for. SOUND & VISION will create a unique package of optional services that will drive audiences and listeners towards your music.
Comprising a close knit experienced team of writers, editors, musicians, experienced label content providers, film directors with specific music promotion experience SOUND & VISION have a thorough and rounded understanding of what it takes to promote music with the love and attention that we believe it deserves.

1. The creation of a professional low cost video promo.
2. The promotion of your music on all platforms online and offline and, if required, the distribution of your new releases.

Bill Cummings graduated from UWIC with a degree in media production and popular culture in 2004. Since then he's built up an extensive portfolio of written work on the local and national music scene.

By 2007 through his own vision and the help of hundreds of student/amatuer music lovers/writers Bill had guided the webzine he created and edits God Is In The TV Zine to a position as one of the best webzines in the UK.
Working with all the major promotional sectors, bands, pr companies and labels he continues to carve a niche for his publication.

Angus Reid graduated from Goldsmith College, University of London in 2003 with a degree in Music. Last year, along with Bill, he undertook the large scale promotional campaign that saw the band achieve over 15,000 downloads through targeted publicity and word of mouth. By day, he works for a small media agency, creating mobile content and marketing for the likes of EMI, Universal, The Venice Festival of Media and the Collins English Dictionary. In 2007 he was part of the Meffy award winning team behind Lily Club, Lily Allen’s mobile site, and has worked extensively on Kylie’s social networking platform Kylie Konnect. In between work and performing, Angus is a writer with an eye for the alternative side – offering the sole voice of positive criticism for the much maligned Field Day 2007.
