“Our intention has always been to offer our artists access to a worldwide network of quality partners and we’re confident we’ve found our people here at Bucks.”

Jonathan Tester, head of creative sync at Bucks Music Group, added: “I was introduced to Grant and Nadine (Riezouw’, GM of operations and sync) over at Gaga by a music supervisor who suggested we should connect.

“Having spoken to Grant it was clear that we share the same values as independents as well as a love of developing and supporting new talent.

“They have a phenomenal roster of bands and artists, and we are very excited to be able to work the cataloguee for sync in the UK.”
