Many artists already do this (if you know any, tag them in a comment); we aren’t the first. But it should be the default option for physical. THANK YOU to everybody who has bought an #ecoMix vinyl: you are voting not just for our music but for our conservation values. THANK YOU

My 4-year-old son starts reception in September. Today I had the 'chat' with him and had to explain that children may single him out as he is a Traveller.
I have told him about how racism is to be expected and what words he may hear. I explained how best to deal with certain

Ever feel resistance is futile but even so, another horizon beckons, weak yet transgressive & transformative? It's at hand - & I've written a book about it, due out in August. @AnthonyGReddie describes it as 'a brilliant text that seeks to help us interpret the world differently'

I don't take royalties for recording bands. This is normal ethical behavior in every other industry and should not be exceptional or notable in music. That it comes up every time we discuss how musicians get paid ought to be embarrassing, but for the nth time...

RIP Alan Hawkshaw. Writer of the themes to Grange Hill and Countdown and king of the KPM All Stars. Once interviewed him about his work with Serge Gainsbourg and asked what he’d been up to lately. “Just finished an album with Des O’Connor,” he said, “and been sampled by 50 Cent.”

You don’t get to stoke the fire at the beginning of the tournament by labelling our anti-racism message as ‘Gesture Politics’ & then pretend to be disgusted when the very thing we’re campaigning against, happens.
I am disgusted that @England players who have given so much for our country this summer have been subject to vile racist abuse on social media.
It has no place in our country and I back the police to hold those responsible accountable.

No promoters means no shows. Promoters are people who put on one show for fun, several shows as a hobby or hundreds of shows as a profession. Please join us in calling on the UK Govt & @OliverDowden to offer us the help we and others need to survive this crisis. #LetTheMusicPlay
