coldplaywave1.jpgLast year was the best for British music since 1998, according to figures released today.

 

Half of all the albums bought in the UK in 2005 were by homegrown acts - a total of 57 million records and the highest share for seven years. The most successful British acts last year were James Blunt, Kaiser Chiefs, Coldplay and Robbie Williams.

 

In 1998 the UK album charts were dominated by Robbie, George Michael and The Verve, alongside Irish acts The Corrs and Boyzone. The figures were released by the British Phonographic Industry ahead of tomorrow night’s Brit Awards. Chairman Peter Jamieson said: “We are privileged to be living through an exciting time for UK music. From Kaiser Chiefs to KT Tunstall, from Gorillaz to James Blunt, British music is succeeding across the board and UK music fans are responding in their droves.”
