We begin a new series with the remarkable story of a small team, that through strategy and hard work turned themselves into a big brand and a groundbreaking band. Grace and Aaron Bond made history in 2023 when they became the first independent rock/blues band to break into the UK Official Album Charts Top 10. Since then, the dedication to their music, their fans, and their understanding of the significance of formulating and executing brand identity has seen them go from strength to strength, including reaching #4 in the Official UK Albums Chart and #1 spots on the Americana, Jazz & Blues, and Album Downloads Charts. Hosted by our own rock god, Adam Hopkinson.
