In tonight's Glasgow Lives, we talk to Chet, a social entrepreneur and events director who has been organising music events in Glasgow for years
Everything I’ve done in the events industry stems back to being in bands and coming from a small town. This may come as a surprise but there isn't that much to do in Ayrshire for the average 12/13 year old with a ponytail, leather jacket & bandana.
When I was 21, I started my first ‘Inhouse’ company with the desire to make 100 quid a week without being there, meaning that I would have an income whilst on tour. I certainly had no idea at the time that 16 years later I would be running three venues and a production company.I was always into music and being involved in the music scene through putting on events and working at venues seemed like the logical way to make it happen.
