Jazz trumpeter Guy Barker, broadcaster and DJ Don Letts and Welsh pop star Bonnie Tyler are among the 2013 Gold Badge Award recipients.
BASCA, in association with PRS for Music, will present the winners with their awards at the 40th anniversary of the awards on Wednesday 16 October at a ceremony at London’s Savoy.
Other winners include Yes sleeve designer Roger Dean and soprano singer Jane Mannning OBE.
Simon Darlow, chairman of BASCA, said: ‘I love the Gold Badge Awards! They are warmly given to those who contribute so much, often behind the scenes, to make our business so successful. It's an honour and a pleasure for BASCA to give these awards in celebration of their achievements.’
Robert Ashcroft, chief executive of PRS for Music, said: ‘The Gold Badge Awards celebrate those from across the business, who through their professional endeavours, benefit the work of songwriters and composers.
‘Film production, art work, industry and legal support to management and performance all have a crucial part to play in keeping British music on a global stage. The recipients this year are all worthy winners and I’m delighted we have the chance to celebrate and recognise their contribution.’
The awards were set up in 1974 to recognise the contribution of exceptional people from across the music industry who have worked to support songwriters and composers.
