THE WORLD CUP 2014 #DoUsProud


We are so pleased to have been part of the World Cup Campaign in support of the England's squad for this year's World Cup.

Teaming up with our friends at Platinum Rye, to create THE track in support of the England team did come with sleepless nights, long hours, back and forth emails with various different companies involved, a lot of hair-pulling and we'll admit.....some tears...BUT we are so glad to have been involved regardless.

We got the brief in from Plat Rye to find a cool, young indie band, where we scouted Dexters who fit the bill perfectly. 

Getting them in the studio, the lads re-recorded The Seekers hit 'I'll Never Find Another You' that quickly became loved by the agency involved in the campaign (Grey London) and The Sun Newspaper...and the rest is history!

The track is now the official England anthem for the World Cup and has gone down a storm with fans across the UK.

The track featured on The Sun's advert in the run-up-to the games of a line-up of footballers heading one ball down the line, with interviews of fans as well as the lead singer of the band Tom.

Dexters certainly did us proud, and we know England will too!

So pleased to have been a part of this!!

DOVE - A MOTHER'S BODY


#NEWPLACEMENTALERT

So as you all know we recently signed an exclusive publishing / management deal with the talented beauty that is Miss Sarah deCourcy. Not only have we been hard hitting A&R's and records labels, setting up writing session for her, she takes time out of her busy schedule to compose music to briefs we get in.

When this Dove brief landed at our door (or should we say on our laptops now we are in the 21st century) we knew Sarah could compose a piece as beautiful as the advert. Two sleepless nights, Miss deCourcy spent in her studio in Chiswick, composing, re-composing, editing, re-editing and she nailed it!!

For our beautiful USA Market, Mother's Day was early this Month, and this placement is a special show of appreciation of all the hard-working Mother's out there.

So here's to you beautiful Mother's

A&G SONGS SIGNS SARAH DECOURCY



We're both excited and proud to announce our Exclusive Publishing / Management deal with the incredibly talented Producer/Composer/Songwriter/Vocal Producer, Sarah deCourcy. (Is there anything this woman can't do?!) Sarah has worked with big names in the industry including Example, Hadouken! and Nicole Scherzinger (to name a few) and she also musical directed Kylie Minogue's 2008 X tour.

Her music is already being snapped up by TV and advertisement placements and we've experienced first-hand the effectiveness of Sarah's music as we placed one of her beautiful compositions alongside our new showreel video. Sarah is currently in the studio working with Levana Wolf on her debut album and Leo Stone's forthcoming EP (writing and producing).

We're anticipating big and exciting things for Sarah here at A&G so watch this space.....
