LILY ALLEN’S anti-piracy campaign is hoovering up the support of more and more musicians.

Tinchy Stryder is the latest to swing behind The Fear singer, following the lead of Frankmusik and Mika.
“I had to back @lilyroseallen after reading her message on music piracy,” said Stryder via Twitter.
“I think music piracy is having a dangerous effect on British music,” said Allen earlier this week on her MySpace blog.
She went on to argue that it’s all very well for established stars to court the piracy brigade, but pointed out that, “file sharing is a disaster as it’s making it harder and harder for new acts to emerge”.
Frankmusik also sided with Allen, posting on Twitter: “@LilyroseAllen just sent me an email about the internet killing music for new artists. It was a bloody good bit of opinion.”
Said Mika: “I am totally with Lily Allen on the music piracy debate and will be getting involved. She’s the first young artist to do something like this.”
Frankmusic, on the 4 December, and Lily Allen, 15 and 17, are both gigging in London later this year. Get tickets for Frankmusic here and tickets for Lily Allen here.
