Imogen Heap to be awarded Music Producers Guild 2018 Inspiration Award

Congratulations go to Imogen Heap who, ahead of the MPG (Music Producers Guild) Awards tomorrow night, has been announced as the recipient of their 2018 Inspiration Award. Imogen is a recording artist, songwriter, producer and Grammy Award winning recording engineer. She has also won a Ivor Novello Award for songwriting.

The Inspiration Award, sponsored by Audio Note and selected by the MPG board of directors, recognises that Imogen Heap is responsible for a body of work that has significantly inspired others. She is also the only female artist to have won a Grammy for engineering.

Other achievements have included a number of internationally successful albums as a recording solo artist, composition and original scores for feature films and music for west-end play, Harry Potter And The Cursed Child.

Imogen has also designed and produced mi.mu musical gloves that combine unique gestural vocabulary, motion data-capture systems and user interfaces allowing her to sculpt and manipulate sound on stage as she performs computer-based digital creations.
