UK and EU Music Industry Chiefs Join Forces to Urge Political Leaders to Tear Down Barriers to Touring the EU

We support the call from UK and EU music leaders to tear down the barriers stopping artists from touring Europe. Their open letter echoes our Face the Music campaign: Brexit red tape is costing jobs, income, and cultural exchange.
