UK Label Beggars Group

Martin Mills set up Beggars Banquet in 1974, initially as record shops, and guided its expansion into the Beggars Banquet record label in 1977, and subsequently into other label and joint venture operations. 4AD, XL Recordings, Matador Records, Rough Trade Records and Young Turks make up the modern Beggars Group, one of the largest independent music groups in the UK, and worldwide the largest owner-run group of labels in the alternative sphere, with its USA headquarters in New York, as well as offices in Los Angeles and nine other international capitals, together with joint venture companies in Spain and Australia. Beggars artists include Adele, Dead Can Dance, Mercury Rev, The Prodigy, Radiohead and The xx, among many others.
