Korda Marshall is an A&R King amongst Kings in the UK and a long term player in the global music industry. He has owned his own label (Infectious), run other indie labels (Mushroom UK) as well as a major label (Warner Music UK) and along the way has had major success at every step. His ethos is imbedded in a punk rock style attitude in that he has always defied convention and the so called rules of the game, but at the very core of what he does so well is his ability to spot talent. Whether it was finding Take That at a time that no one believed in them or the time that he took a chance on a young Irish pop punk trio in Ash or when he steered the global careers of Muse, Garbage and our very own Temper Trap, the fact remains- it was achieved on his terms and on his creative watch. In this interview, he gives us a real insight into his inner thoughts about the industry, his place in it and what he aims to achieve as the head of Mushroom Group of Labels in the UK.
