In a great night for UMPG artists, Tom Walker, Dua Lipa and Ariana Grande were among the winners at this year’s Brit awards.
 
Tom Walker took home his first Brit, the award for British Breakthrough Act. In a humble speech, Tom called the win an ‘an absolute honour and privilege’. 

Currently boasting No’s 1, 2 and 3 on the Billboard Hot 100, Ariana Grande was crowned International Female Solo Artist. 

Unstoppable pop sensation Dua Lipa (Tap Publishing) won the award for British Single for "One Kiss" (with Calvin Harris).

There was no shortage of UMPG representation in the night’s performances. Dua Lipa took part in a medley with some of the biggest names in pop, H.E.R accompanied Jess Glynne in an emotional performance and Bastille’s Dan Smith joined P!nk for part of her closing medley.
