Andy and the Odd Socks Appoints Brands with Influence

When the band formed in 2017 and played the world famous Glastonbury Festival, they had no idea that just a few years later they would have a hugely successful TV show in the UK, Australia and the USA, plus over 100 live shows under the belt, and a social media reach of 100 million. But this CBBC/CBeebies family bridging show led by ANDY DAY has gone from strength to strength and Ninja Pig Productions, who produce the show, has now appointed Brands with Influence to manage their worldwide licensing programme.

Talking about the appointment Martin Lowde, MD Brands with Influence explained: “The energy you get from this series and this band is infectious. They amplify fun, make great music and deliver a really positive message on anti-bullying. They have been building a large loyal fan base over the last few years and we are excited to be asked to help serve this audience by creating fab merchandise.”

With a core audience of 4-9 year olds, ANDY AND THE ODD SOCKS is a family brand with parents loving the great music, and positive messaging. This brand is all about inclusivity and this is now being delivered across TV, live tours, social media and is attracting guest stars like Brian May to join the fun.
