The Musicians’ Union (MU) is extremely concerned about how this will affect musicians who are owed money through the platform, and is currently seeking further legal advice.

The MU has been working with individual members who have had funds withheld on a case-to-case basis. Members who have been affected but have not yet been in touch are advised to get in contact with their Regional Office.

Further information will be available to members as soon as there is clear information on who the administrator is, and how those owed money can lodge a claim.
