Other notable announcements and developments today…
• Record industry trade group BPI has hired Zain Ali to joins its legal team. “Given my background in IP law and love of music, it’s a perfect match for me to be working for the BPI”, says Ali.
• Harry Styles has released the video for ‘Sign Of The Times’ now. For some reason he can fly.
• Slipknot have released a new 360° live video of them performing ‘The Shape’ at last year’s Knotfest.
• Brutus have shared a new track, ‘Drive’. It’s taken from their debut album, ‘Burst’, which is out on Friday.
• The line-up has been announced for Gorillaz’s Demon Dayz festival in Margate. Vince Staples, De La Soul, Danny Brown, Kali Uchis, Popcaan, Kilo Kish, Little Simz and Fufanu will all perform, as will a ‘very special guest’, who we assume is Noel Gallagher. Although it would be funnier if it was Liam.
• MØ has announced that she will tour the UK and Ireland this October, starting at Mandella Hall in Belfast on 20 Oct.
