Music creators

We champion music rights, ensuring our members’ talent and investment is fairly rewarded.

We’re proud to represent over 150,000 members, getting creators paid when their music is played.

Music makes the world a better place.

World-class performers

From global stars and session musicians to ensemble players, we help performers get paid when their music is played.

Iconic recording rightsholders

From major record labels and independents to self-releasing artists and individuals – their investment helps create the music we all love.

Championing next-generation artists

Breaking through takes more than talent. Through our partnership with PRS Foundation, the UK’s leading charitable funder of new music and talent development, we offer financial support for recording, touring and marketing – backing the next generation of music creators.

Supporting the music community

Organisations that champion, protect and develop the musical performer community are vital to a healthy music landscape – they have our support.

You’re in good company
