Ninja Tune and Beggars Group have announced plans to become carbon negative.
As part of ongoing commitments toward sustainability, Ninja Tune, home to Big Dada and Technicolour, alongside 4AD, Matador, Rough Trade, XL and Young s parent company Beggars, have shared plans on how they intend to become carbon negative over the next decade.
After hiring head of sustainability Will Hutton in March this year, Beggars is pledging to reduce its emissions by 46% by 2030. Speaking about the changes with Music Week, Hutton said: “To get to work on measuring and reducing our impact as quickly as possible, we took the decision to focus on UK-managed operations (about two-thirds of our business) at the outset of the project in September 2020. Over the summer of 2021, we will expand our data collection and analysis efforts to cover US-managed operations too, giving us a comprehensive oversight of the global business.
If you are a
Jason Isbell fan, then you are definitely familiar with his solo records, as well as his music with his band The 400 Unit. However, you might be less familiar with the music of the
Drive-By Truckers, the band that Jason began his career with.
The Athens, Georgia, based band began as a southern rock and alt-country outfit, but have become a genre-bending staple not only in the South, but across the country. The band’s origins date back to when two northern Alabama natives, Patterson Hood and Mike Cooley, met as roommates at the University of North Alabama, but the Drive-By Truckers didn’t actually form until 1996 in Athens. Since then, DBT has released over a dozen albums and four live albums.
