International Anthem turn to Chicago legend Jeff Parker, and release a solo album soon after the esteemed label won Gilles Peterson's Worldwide label of the year in 2019

One of International Anthem's foundation artists, Jeff Parker is perhaps best known for his pioneering work in the experimental Chicago band, Tortoise. Charged with promoting his album Suite For Max Brown to UK and select international media, we led a PR campaign that saw Jeff's album, singles and videos reach an array of media and ultimately music consuming fans, ultimately reaching the top of the UK jazz and blues charts.

Campaign Highlights include:

  • No 1 in the Official UK Charts (Jazz & Blues)
  • Cover star for Dutch publication Gonzo Circus 
  • BBC airplay on BBC Radio 2, BBC 6Music, BBC Radio 3, BBC Scotland, Local BBC channels
  • UK Radio support: Jamie Cullum, Gilles Peterson, Mary Anne Hobbs, Huey Morgan & Jon Kennedy
