PRS to sponsor Indy Music Awards
PRS are to sponsor the INDY Music Awards, which take place at The Forum on April 25 in London's Kentish Town.
The INDYs, now in their second year, recognise the unsung heroes of the independent music scene.
Keith Gilbert, Managing Director of PRS Public Performance Sales said: 'We are thrilled to be supporting the 2008 Indy Music Awards for the second year and are particularly delighted to be sponsoring all the three categories for Venue of the Year.
The Venue of the Year Award is an important step towards recognising venues that provide essential platforms for music, in the form of stages or music nights, for new and established acts to perform their work. Music venues across the UK are crucial to supporting and promoting the future of the music industry.'
Momentum is already building for the awards, with over 300 venues and promoters already registered on the site and more than 400 artists from a wide range of genres having been nominated.
