Mvula joins PRS Members Council

Award-winning singer-songwriter LAURA MVULA has joined PRS for Music’ Members Council.

Mvula has had a varied career, including leading acapella, jazz, neo-soul and gospel choirs and composing the music for the Royal Shakespeare Company’s production of Antony & Cleopatra. Her albums have received numerous accolades, including two MOBO awards, two Ivor Novello Awards and three Mercury Prize nominations. 

In her new role, she will focus on ensuring that the views, concerns and needs of PRS members are received and met, as well as on strategic oversight and reviewing company performance.

“Writing has always been part of my everyday life. Teaching, conducting, arranging, performing – each has taught me something about what it means to be a musician and songwriter,” she said. 

“As a PRS Writer Council Member, it’s my desire to ensure music creators are given the support they need to navigate the ever-changing landscape.”
