Navigation for Flying Nun Records

As Flying Nun's cult reputation spreads internationally, more bands tour and record in the Northern hemisphere. As opportunities and ambitions increase, the company tries to keep up with the cost of supporting those desires by focusing on the international music market.

Founder Roger Shepherd moves to London to lead the charge… in the hope that a Flying Nun band will have a hit.
