Wiley and Kasabian scoop Flare Audio-sponsored Q Awards

Flare Audio presented two awards at last night’s Q Awards 2017 in London. We sponsored the Q Innovation In Sound award and the Q Best Track award.

The winners of both awards were announced at a ceremony at the Roundhouse, Camden, on Wednesday evening.

The Innovation In Sound honour was collected by Wiley, who was chosen as the winner by a panel from Q’s editorial staff.
