The team behind the critically acclaimed #1 album HELP(2), released in March for War Child UK featuring Arctic Monkeys, Olivia Rodrigo, Fontaines DC, Ezra Collective, Cameron Winter, Wet Leg and many more tell the story of how the record came together: why now was the time to release it, and the continued impact it is having for children whose lives have been torn apart by war. Discussing the A&R vision and release strategy, this creative campaign is putting children front and centre, and NME will guide a discussion on how War Child are using those funds to help the most vulnerable.
Speakers:
Toby L (Transgressive) – A&R
Helen Kennedy (Freelance / Beggars) – Marketing / Campaign Manager
Rich Clarke (War Child) – Head of Music
Andrew Trendell – NME
