Music has always been my passion, my driving force, and my purpose. Before I became a hard rock and heavy metal publicist, I started my career as a music journalist for Rock N Roll Industries Magazine. Through that experience, I had the incredible opportunity to meet and interview countless bands, getting a firsthand look at what they needed most—exposure, advocacy, and someone willing to break down barriers on their behalf.
With determination and a deep love for hard rock and heavy metal, I carved out my path as a publicist in this niche space. It’s a journey that requires resilience, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. I am here to help the bands I believe in get the recognition they deserve.
Rootbrain: The Future of Alternative Metal
Their latest single, “Unawares,” is a stunning showcase of their signature fusion—brooding melodies, crushing riffs, and dynamic intensity. Following their electrifying cover of Garbage’s #1 Crush, Unawares dives deeper into the band’s raw emotion and precision musicianship. This track has even caught the attention of Metal Hammer, earning a spot on their “Track of the Week” list.
