‘If we are to nurture the next generation of British stars like Adele, Stormzy and Ed Sheeran, we need the government to listen and act to ensure our music industry remains the envy of the world.’ Lucy Noble, chair of the National Arenas Association and artistic and commercial director of the Royal Albert Hall, added: ‘The government must not abandon the music industry which is such a vital part of our economy, culture and social fabric.
‘The support for our world-leading industry must continue until we have a chance to get back on our feet.’
