Locksmith from Rudimental says, “We’re all about inspiring and bringing people together from all walks of life through the music we create. We had a lot of fun and learnt a lot at McLaren and it’s crazy to think how much synergy there is with the world of music and sport when it comes to inspiration!”
The exclusive content is part of Vuse’s ‘Routes of Inspiration’, a virtual series that explores how inspiration comes to professionals within the creative world. Following the cancellation of live entertainment events around the world, the series has been created to give artists and fans a new way to connect. In 2021, Vuse’s partnership with Rudimental will continue to develop through activations and performances that drive further inspiration and global brand awareness.
“This special activation with Rudimental and McLaren is a big move for Vuse as we look to Charge Beyond and connect with our adult consumers on a wider scale, bringing together our partnerships across music and sport. With lockdowns still happening across the world, and the creative sector struggling because of it, we’re glad that we can provide fans with a creative outlet where they can find inspiration at home, along with enjoying an exclusive performance by Rudimental!” says Elly Criticou, Vapour Category Director, BAT.
Mark Waller, Managing Director of Sales and Marketing, McLaren Racing said “It was a pleasure to collaborate with Rudimental as part of Vuse’s Routes of Inspiration campaign.
