About Me


FUTURE
I believe in a better future for everyone but first and formost i want to build a better future for my family. I am a very proud father and my beautiful wife is expecting child number 2 in August '09 - Every passing second i think of why WE live the way WE live and if there is a way to change. There is and soon I hope to be in a position to share my thoughts with you all. On the 24th February 2009 I sent a letter and a fax to the Prime Minister with my views, I hope i'll sonn be able to share with you his reply - Watch this space !.
FAMILY
I married my good lady after 10 years together (on/off) in July 2007 : We have a wee boy STUART he's beautiful like his Ma and daft like his Da !
FOOTBALL
Played proffesional football for 6 years in Scotland between 1997 - 2003, for Cowdenbeath, Berwick Rangers, Stenhousemuir, Arbroath, Clyde and Partick Thistle
Currently doing a series of modules and 'should be' fully qualified personal trainer come January 2008 with an aim of going back to football in a coaching capacity full/part time.
Before then i have some un-finished business in the music industry !!!!!!
MUSIC
Stopped playing in 2003 and started working in the music industry doing band management & live event management.
Recently gave birth to LOVE LIVE a series of nights being held throughout the UK featuring the countries FINEST rising talent.
I have worked closely with Scottish Rock band The Revivals - who are having a break after 2 years gigging, album release, 7 BBC acoustic session, 2 UK tours & 2 SXSW appearances. The band may return as a NEW line-up in 2008 (watch this space). For now i will be working with Ian (Revivals Frontman) on his debut acoustic album.
Formed Indie Record label Crushed Roc Records in 2005 (distributed through Proper) but became disilusioned by the amount of work (far too much for one person) and put it on the back burner with a view to doing it right in the near future. That means meeting like minded people who share the same passion and belief. With the right people ANYTHING is possible.
Check out the bands in my Top friends !

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


Up & coming bands looking for band management get in touch. If it's not for me i'll point you in the right direction. Anyone that would like to join forces and launch a label, share the load and succeed !

PEACE & LOVE Murray John Loudon McDowell (aka) Mad Mur Mac !!
