A business built on solid foundations

Norwich Artistes was formed in 1967. In the early years the company promoted and managed local bands and was responsible for introducing the likes of Jethro Tull, Stevie Winwood, Fleetwood Mac, The Who, The Bee Gees and Rod Stewart into the dance halls of East Anglia.

In 1974 the business was taken over by Brian Russell and David Clayton. From this time onwards, Norwich Artistes honed its skills and talents throughout the years of much change within live entertainment. Expansion into disco and cabaret took place and the company established itself as a leading booker for the holiday industry within the many parks dotted along the coastline of Eastern England.

David Clayton left in 1983 to pursue a broadcasting career with the BBC but the company continued to expand into other markets within the entertainment business. Today, Norwich Artistes is widely regarded as one of the region's leading providers of quality entertainment for every occasion. The company maintains a prominent role as booking agents and consultants to conference, banqueting and leisure within the hotel, holiday and private sector industries, together with corporate activities throughout the United Kingdom and worldwide.

Brian Russell has been at the helm since the seventies and to this day he continues to offer a personal and professional service that is second to none.
