Info

UK indie label launched by Martin Mills and artist 5612455 in 1977 with two 7" singles by punk band The Lurkers. Over the years, Beggars has released music in various genres like punk, goth, synth-pop, folk-rock, indie and more. They have launched several spin-off labels (4AD, Situation Two, City Beat, XL Recordings) and bought out/invested in many others (Too Pure, Mo Wax, Matador), creating Beggars Group, one of the largest networks of indie record labels in the world.

In April 2008 the Beggars Group, chaired by Martin Mills, opted to retire the Beggars Banquet imprint, moving key artists to the Beggars Group owned 4AD label.
