Russ, originally from Herefordshire, moved to Carlisle in 2015, from working around music and other media for some time Russ decided to set up his own music promotions company.
He has seen great success across north Cumbria and is now branching his services out along the west coast.
Mr Withey said: "We're an events and promotions company where we put on our own gigs, and we also have bands and artists who are part of my website who we get gigs and events for.
"They contact me and ask if I can get them gigs so I basically put people together."
Russ has been working in music for the last twenty years since he was 18 years old, for much of the time he's worked in record stores and says he's always been interested in going to gigs and festivals.
He says that for this time music has been his life and he really enjoy the local music scene.
Over the last seven years Russ has been living in Cumbria and he described the music scene in the area as 'phenomenal.' Russ Shirt
