After developing her music project over 18 months, Grace and I signed BEX to the brilliant Mancunian label Scruff of the Neck! BEX had grown to 48K IG and 30K TikTok followers, we'd secured legendary rock live agent Steve Zapp @ ITB – label was next! Team photo with me on the laptop screen alongside BEX's dad – remote working at its finest!
