In the last year, people around the world have been disrupted by the pandemic. Artists, crews, and all the people who bring music to life have seen their livelihoods disappear. At the same time, the bike industry is booming, which lead me to ask, how can Brompton help our friends in the music industry? , said Tevis Jory, Music Project Lead & North America Sales Manager at Brompton.
