“We love working with Matt. The imagination, style and professionalism he has brought to our annual flagship venture, the RPS Awards - both the event itself and how we share it with the world online - has transformed its scope and profile, and positively, palpably resonated with music-loving audiences and music-making colleagues nationwide.”
