Hit maker

The late Ugo Ehiogu may have been best known as a professional footballer who represented Aston Villa, Middlesbrough and England with distinction. However, as Angus Harrison explains in a lovely obituary for Noisey, he also had a significant impact within the world of music as the co-founder of and principal investor in Dirty Hit Records, the label that Wolf Alice, The 1975, Little Comets, Benjamin Francis Leftwich and Superfood have all at one time called home.
