Chris Squire and Stephen Nardelli of 60's psychedelic rock group The Syn (Squire was also a member of Yes) will today launch a new company called Umbrello Entertainment Group, which will operate both a record label and a music TV station. Details of the former's first signings should be revealed at the launch event at London's Café Royal this morning. The TV station will launch later today on Sky, boasting a mix of "exclusive performances" from established acts and newer talent, plus short films made by up-and-coming directors. Called That-TV (short for The Home Of Alternative Television), the TV channel will be based in Edinburgh and run by music promoter and director Colin Usher.
