PRS for Music Announces Britain’s Hardest Working Bands
Peter Andre clinches title from Status Quo
Peter Andre has been crowned the most performed artist to headline at MAJOR VENUES for 2010 by PRS for Music.
PRS for Music, the organisation which collects royalties on behalf of its songwriter, composer and publisher members has released its annual series of charts on the hardest working performers in 2010 categorised by venue type.
Andre performed a 38 date Revelation concert tour in 2010, performing to almost 100,000 fans.
Status Quo claimed the title for the past two years but this year slipped into second place, with newcomers JLS coming in third.
Nothing beats performing live. Performing in front of thousands of fans is my ultimate experience so I’m delighted to get this recognition from PRS for Music.
Performing live has always been a huge part of the music business and it’s right we celebrate those that work so hard at it. Congratulations to Peter and all the songwriters who he has worked with to create the music that so many people are enjoying.
