Update: 2025-11-24
Description
Today’s guest is Dean James, who’s had an incredible journey in music. He was one of the co-founders of the MAMA Group, which at its peak operated some of the UK’s most iconic venues and festivals including the Hammersmith Apollo before eventually selling the business to HMV.
We spoke to Dean about how and why he got into live music, how he went on to build the MAMA Group, and what eventually happened to it. I don’t want to spoil too much of this one & there’s so much to learn from this one so let’s get straight into it.
