Radio 2 plan show on state of music industry

BBC Radio 2 will air The Great British Music Debate, fronted by Stuart Maconie, on 2 July to discuss the state of the British music industry.

The British music industry is in a mess - or so reckon BBC Radio 2. On that premise they are planning an evening to discuss what went wrong and how to fix things with a Stuart Maconie fronted show called The Great British Music Debate.

Talking about the show Radio 2 controller James Moir told reporters: "We are excited about the opportunity we have to give an external airing to the internal debate that rages about the viability of singles, the role and importance of albums in the future, the issues surrounding piracy, A&R and new technology."

The programme and debate will air on 2 Jul.
