13 UMPG published songs feature in new Netflix series ‘Too Much’, created by Lena Dunham and Luis Felber, starring Megan Stalter and Will Sharpe. The storyline follows a heartbroken New Yorker who moves to London looking for love, and falls for an indie musician who's anything but the typical romantic hero.
The syncs include Fergie - ‘London Bridge’ (UMPG writer Polow Da Don), for which Fergie has re-created the music video to tie in with the series. Fergie infamously shot the original music video for ‘London Bridge’ in front of Tower Bridge. Now 20 years later - with a brilliantly wry sense of humour - she’s shot a new version on the correct bridge (“Yeah, now you see why we didn’t shoot here originally”).
