Music stars unite to seek control
October 4, 2008 UK pop and rock stars are taking action to try to gain ownership and control of their work from record labels.
Robbie Williams, Radiohead, Kaiser Chiefs and The Verve are among the acts who have signed up to a new pressure group, the Featured Artists’ Coalition.
It wants artists to keep the rights to the music they create and to have a greater say in how their songs are sold - and a bigger slice of the takings. It is a sign of a shift in power in the music industry in the digital age.
