Once again, for the third time in four years, Proper Music Distribution (that’s us) have been nominated by Music Week, the official magazine covering the UK music industry, for the Distributor of the Year Award.
The nominees for this award are as follows:
• Arvato Bertelsmann
• Consolidated Independent
• Music Box Leisure (MBL)
• Proper Music Distribution
• Sony DADC
We are rather chuffed to be nominated for this award again; it shows that we have as much force in the industry as multi-million pound backed distributors who deal with major labels. So score one for independent music!
Even better news though; we’ve also been nominated for Music Sales Force of the Year, alongside:
• [PIAS]
• Proper Music Distribution
• Sony Music
• Universal Music
"Use the sales force, Luke!"
So being nominated for two awards is fantastic and we’re very proud of ourselves. Except we’ve actually been nominated for three; we are also nominated for Catalogue Marketing Campaign of the Year. The nominees are:
• Sue Armstrong & Andy Street from Universal for Paul Weller At The BBC
• Stephen Kersley from Proper Music Distribution for That’s Proper Folk
• Will Nicol and Hayden Williams from Sony Music Entertainment for Michael Jackson at 50
• Rachael Paley from Mercury Records for Stereophonics – Decade In The Sun – Best Of
• Elyse Taylor from simplyred.com for Simply Red – The Greatest Hits 25
That's Proper Folk!!
Our CD has been so successful that people have started ripping it off already:
That's Proper Blues??
You can read the full list of all the awards and nominees over on the Music Week Awards website.
We’d like say a big thank you to all the people who’ve supported us, deliberately or inadvertently, by buying CDs from our fantastic catalogue.
Thank You!
