In conjunction with our recently announced partnership with The BRIT School, we are excited to be supporting The Other Songs Live – a phenomenal event at The London Palladium on 19 May.
The event will spotlight a curated selection of the music industry’s brightest songwriters and composers, raising funds for The BRIT School, as part of The Other Songs’ commitment to supporting arts education, which has been decimated by funding cuts.
The line up includes Nile Rodgers, Justin Tranter, Cathy Dennis, Jos Rivers, Selorm Adonu, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Cush Jumbo and Zach Nahome, with more to be announced soon. For the first time, talented pupils of The BRIT school will be sharing the stage with the performers, which includes BRIT School alumni, offering support both on and off stage.
Delighted to be sponsoring this one-of-a-kind industry showcase alongside The Orchard, Universal Music Publishing Group, PRS for Music, Spotify and AEG.
We’re proud to play just a small part in securing the future of the UK’s creative industries.
