Career
Emma's career started at 16 through a Youth Training Scheme, stepping into full-time radio in 1988. Over the next 25 years (1988–2013), she became a prominent radio presenter, working with leading UK stations including Kerrang! Radio, Q Radio, Heart, Power FM, Galaxy Radio, Hallam FM, and Metro FM. Notably, she was among the top 20 Drive Time presenters in the UK at Kerrang! Radio and was approached by BBC Radio 1 twice in the late 1990s. Emma’s work extended to Global Radio and Bauer Radio, two of the UK’s largest commercial radio brands. Beyond radio, Emma presented live music TV shows, hosted concerts, served as a voice-over artist, and contributed as a blogger and band manager. From 2006 to 2013, she also helped run a record label and organized live music events, earning her three consecutive Promoter of the Year awards at the Pure Rawk Awards (2011–2013) and the “Best Local Promoter” title at the Live Music Business Awards in 2012. Since 2013, Emma has operated Pluggin Baby Ltd., her radio plugging and PR company, collaborating with hundreds of independent artists, primarily in rock and metal, to secure radio airplay, reviews, and online coverage. Her work has empowered artists to navigate the industry with confidence and visibility.
Present
Currently, Emma continues to lead Pluggin Baby Ltd., a role she has held for nine years, focusing on amplifying independent artists through strategic promotion. She recently completed a Music Entrepreneur Master’s Degree, graduating with distinction and producing a dissertation on guiding independent musicians to secure radio airplay. This project led to the creation of YouTube videos, podcasts, and free webinars titled “How to Get Radio Airplay,” sharing her expertise with aspiring artists. Emma has returned to the airwaves with a syndicated radio show on Outreach Radio in Hampshire and surrounding areas. Despite the station’s focus on locally produced content, an exception was made for Emma due to her ongoing commitment to promoting up-and-coming regional artists. Previously a presenter at Power FM in Portsmouth (2002–2005), Emma’s return to radio reflects her enduring influence and dedication to the music community.
