SONY'S POST-BRITs EXTRAVAGANZA: BLIMEY, THAT'S A PARTY, INNIT?

After a triumphant evening at the BRITs, Team Sony gathered to celebrate—and to pose for a series of lightly unbuttoned, tastefully exuberant photos. We managed to get our grubby mitts on a few of them.


Quadruple winner and Columbia superstar Harry Styles, who’s earned enough hardware in 2023 alone to break all of your shelves, is enfolded in the bosom of his music-biz fam. Seen being casually beautiful are (l-r) Full Stop Management’s Tommy Bruce, Sony Music EVP International Marketing Melissa Thomas, Full Stop’s Jeffrey Azoff, Sony Music U.K. & Ireland boss Jason Iley, Columbia President Jenifer Mallory, Styles and Sony Music topper Rob Stringer.


Iley joins Since 93 Co-President (and freshly anointed RCA U.K. co-prez) Glyn Aikins, artist Mette, Since 93 Co-President Riki Bleau and Mette manager Caron Veazey for this glam tableau, which everyone pictured here hoped would end up in a more dignified publication than this one. More drinks helped, though.

4th Floor Creative President Cassandra Gracey and legendary exec Roger Ames are having much, much more fun than you are, even if you’re not sitting in a darkened room writing party-photo captions while swilling gin out of a World’s Best Dad mug.
