Mick Ross (he/him)
CEO
Alice Fuller (she/her)
Deputy CEO
Alice is fortunate to enjoy a career that involves both music performance and arts & culture business development. This includes an extensive career as a jazz vocalist, performing at venues across the UK, Europe, and the Middle East. Her love of Big Band evolved from singing with the UK's National Youth Jazz Orchestra to her current role as vocalist with the North East's Strictly Smokin’ Big Band.
An alumna of the Guildhall School of Music & Drama and the Conservatorium van Amsterdam, Alice spent several years between London and Amsterdam writing and recording for electronic music producers, teaching music, and performing alongside some of her biggest jazz influences. Her interest in arts administration was nurtured at Dali Universe, Sound and Music, and as music consultant for a handful of retail and hospitality outlets around London. This was followed by a move to the United Arab Emirates to work as music manager for SOLE Agency; a role which required coordinating large-scale national and international projects and producing seven-night live music schedules at venues across the country. Relocating to Newcastle-upon-Tyne in 2016, Alice continued her work in arts and culture business development for Worldbeaters, Newcastle Arts Centre, Changing Relations, Newcastle Jazz Festival, and Silent Disco 4U. She also sits on the board of trustees for Newcastle Arts Centre, is part of the Advisory Group for Newcastle’s Culture & Creative Zone and continues to teach singing at Newcastle University.
