With a heritage of artists from across the musical spectrum, Decca Records is one of the most established names in music. Today, it continues to be a label of great diversity, thriving on discovering talent in areas such as pop, rock, folk, Americana, and many more.
Decca is a legendary British record company established in 1929 by Edward Lewis. Like its sister label Decca Records, Decca Classics is a label of great diversity, particularly renowned for its opera recordings and sound engineering, and home to many of the world’s most distinguished classical artists, such as Sir Georg Solti, Renée Fleming, Vladimir Ashkenazy, Cecilia Bartoli, Riccardo Chailly, Nicola Benedetti, Benjamin Grosvenor and Sheku Kanneh-Mason. Throughout his long and distinguished career, Decca was the exclusive label for the most successful classical recording artist in history, Luciano Pavarotti.
Mercury KX is the first post-classical imprint operating within a major music group. The label aims to identify and work with composer-performers of strong creative individuality that bring a distinct perspective to contemporary music, focusing on new instrumental music – crossing borders between electronic, modern, classical, alternative and ambient. Ólafur Arnalds, Anoushka Shankar, Jean-Michel Blais and Isobel Waller-Bridge are just a few of genre-defying artists who call Mercury KX home.
