As the curator of Liverpool International Music Festival (LIMF), Yaw is year upon year creating invaluable opportunities for the artists, community and culture of Liverpool. LIMF is, however, only a small piece of Yaw’s pie with his own organisation The Playmaker Group taking an industry-leading position in Creative Consultancy, Content Creation and Event Management. To date, some of The Playmakers Clients include Glastonbury, Universal, British Airways and the BBC to name a few. In this podcast episode, we dive deep into Yaw's world to understand his perspective, story and achievement.

So what are 3 things that you will learn from today’s episode?

* We leap into Yaw's rather interesting journey from a degree in Law to playing Basketball for the US Air Force to making documentaries for the BBC and of course, curating Liverpool International Music Festival.

* Second thing you will learn from this episode is how books, learning and diving deep into art and culture has really shaped Yaw's perspective, approach and drive. We also explore some nuggets on identity in relation to the industry.

* Finally we, of course, cover the world of the Liverpool International Music Festival from an understanding into the journey to what the role of the Curator entails.
