MUSIC PR & RADIO PLUGGERS.

Formed in Manchester (UK), we specialise in Print & online press across UK, Europe and USA, as well as national radio campaigns.

We started in the year 2000 after Dave Cooper decided to go it alone in the big bad world of music press. He earned his stripes working for Pomona - working on the likes of Nick Cave, Portishead & Paul Weller. After founding In House - he’s proud to have worked press for The Coral, Plaid, Arab Strap, Prefuse 73, Boom Bip, The Earlies, Gorky’s Zygotic Mynci, Faust, Okkervil River & many more well respected outfits and misfits.

A few years later (2004) Will Lawrence came along and placed his foot firmly in the door. Starting out stuffing records in envelopes he soon got the knack for this press malarkey and now runs the day to day at In House - heading up some standout campaigns for the likes of The Go! Team, Field Music, Rodriguez, Low, Fuck Buttons, Charles Bradley, The Weather Station, Lee Hazlewood, The Comet Is Coming, W. H. Lung, Julie Byrne et cetera et cetera. Taking particular joy in shining a light on forgotten gems on the Habibi Funk, Finders Keepers, Light in the Attic, Luaka Bop, Now-Again and Paradise Of Bachelors labels.

After graduating with a degree in Philosophy from the University of Birmingham, Josef Pugh returned up north and immersed himself in the vibrant music scenes of Manchester and Todmorden. Whether it’s moshing at hardcore shows, dancing through industrial raves, or quietly taking in a sitar recital, his taste is broad and ever-shifting — always keeping his ears open for the unexpected gem.

The through-line is that we love the music.
