Ambassadors

Electronic music duo BICEP have been hailed by the BBC as “one of the biggest names in UK dance”, and continue to cement themselves as one of the defining global electronic acts of our times. Matt McBriar and Andy Ferguson have supported Youth Music since 2018, and in 2019 we appointed them as Ambassadors. BICEP have raised over £20,000 for Youth Music.

"We've found working with Youth music an incredibly inspiring process! Year on year we're always blown away by the talent they help foster. It's been an amazing journey to have been a small part of that!”

“When I was approached by Youth Music to be involved in some capacity it was a yes without question. Growing up in Philadelphia without access to music would have changed my path in life, music is essential to all walks of life, so I am thrilled to be an ambassador to Youth Music.”

“I am excited to be joining Youth Music as an Ambassador. Music is at the centre of my life and brings me so much happiness and escapism.

"Very excited to announce that I’m a 2024 Youth Music Ambassador. I went to last year’s awards and from that moment, being able to see the talent that was there, and what Youth Music were doing for young talent, I knew instantly that I wanted to be an ambassador for this year.

As someone who has been working in the industry since I was 14, I know how important it is to acknowledge talent from a young age, hone in on it, sharpen your knife, and it’s great there are charities like this that can advocate for that and I’m happy to be involved.”
