This will cheer you all up, I'm sure. Katie Melua has been confirmed as the best selling female artist in Europe during 2006, with her second album, 'Piece By Piece', having sold over 3 million units across the continent since its September 2005 release. Here's what her manager/label boss Mike Batt has to say: "We are extremely proud to have helped Katie to this high level of achievement particularly in light of the independent structure of our company and the hard work and expertise that has been brought to bear by our fantastic independent distributors throughout Europe. Katie will hear about this tremendous achievement just before her sell-out concert at the Olympia in Paris, an appropriate venue for such an exciting announcement and a wonderful way to round off another superb year".
