Huge moment for the @onlythepoets team. 🏆

From the minute I met @ijacksonx and the band back in 2019, I knew they were different. They didn’t just want to “build a following” they wanted to build a community. They put trust and goodwill dead center of everything they did.

Today, their debut album entered the UK Official Charts at No. 9.

This is more than just a chart position; it’s the “Gold Standard” of how to use Openstage to bridge the gap between artist and fan.

There is a massive lesson here for the whole of the music industry.

Making the most of the audience you already have is just as important as growing a new one. While everyone else is chasing the next viral trend, these guys proved that depth beats breadth every time.

When you treat fans like a community rather than a metric, the results speak for themselves.

Incredible work Tommy, Clem, Roo, Marcus, and Sam. You’ve earned every bit of this success. 🥂✨

Not Reading 26

Radiohead - 25.11.25

Paul McCartney joins Openstage

As someone who’s always been a bit soppy about music, this is a huge one for me.

My life has been soundtracked by Paul’s music but especially The Beatles.

Singing Yellow Submarine with my mum at bathtime.

Sitting in my dad’s Datsun Cherry, windows down with She Loves You on repeat.

As a teenager, sitting in my room, completely awestruck the first time I heard I Want You (She’s So Heavy.)

And years later the first dance at our wedding was of course a Beatles song

Having Paul join Openstage isn’t just an incredible honour. It’s a validation of everything we’ve built and everything we’re still dreaming of. ❤️
