The NuDirections - The Project

NuDirections is a cherished not-for-profit project that I hold close to my heart. Some three years ago, I embarked on this incredible musical journey.

NuDirections started as a humble weekly radio show on a UK local community radio station, has now morphed into a significant global music platform with my musical friends that's tuning ears worldwide!

These past three years have taken me on learning curves of many new skills and I made some serious musical friends. Every day has become a new chapter, filled with lessons, and the joy of discovering fresh faces in the music scene. It feels like I’m just scratching the surface, and honestly, I can't wait to see where this journey takes me.

NuDirections has grown stronger, standing tall on its musical feet, and Now it's time to step confidently into the future. The road ahead looks exciting, and I'm thrilled about the adventures waiting for us.
A massive thank you to all of my incredible musical friends who have joined me on this journey, and A huge shoutout to all of the followers, supporters, and listeners of the NuDirections project! Your love and enthusiasm have fuelled this musical odyssey, and I want to express my gratitude personally. You're all the heartbeat of this community, and I couldn't be more thankful.

And guess what? The best is yet to come! as NuDirections continues to evolve from just a music platform to bring you Blogs, Music videos, Images, and Albums we like with links to where to purchase, and introduce you to more music from around the globe. Together, let's make the next chapter even more unforgettable.
