It's Not A Phase

On this episode of the It's Not A Phase podcast, I spoke with music publicist Jamie Otsa, who is also the founder and director of his own firm, Wall Of Sound PR.

We cover what a music publicist is and does, his unconventional route of getting into publicity, his advice to anyone interested in that career path, what a band needs and should expect from a PR campaign, and more.

Hi everyone! My name is Zach Redrup and this is the It's Not a Phase podcast!

I'll be delivering you a new episode every Thursday where I'll be hanging out and talking with your favourite bands and artists in rock, punk, metal, emo, hardcore, and beyond.

I'll also be speaking with people with more "behind-the-scenes" roles in the industry such as tour managers, publicists, festival promoters, label owners and more to get a full deep dive into how this whole scene works.

Please subscribe and remember - it's not a phase, it's a lifestyle.

You can also check out and pick up some merch, and subscribe to our Patreon subscription service to get access to new episodes early.
