Scottish independence referendum: What musicians think
From Bowie to Geldof, what major artists have to say
Alan McGee, founder of Creation Records, former manager of Oasis/The Libertines (Yes): "Scotland should have more powers. It should be much more like Ireland and a celtic haven for artists. We should be making it easier for people to exist, with tax breaks not just for musicians to live in their home country but artists like Jim Lambie, who shouldn't have to live in New York."
Without a doubt one of the biggest decisions in British political history, the forthcoming referendum on Scottish Independence is a huge deal, even for those of us who don't get a vote.
With both sides relentlessly trying to garner support over the last few months, many have looked to their idols for guidance, a role which many celebrities have embraced whilst others have shied away, not wanting to influence fans for the wrong reasons.
Despite some artists no doubt having a louder voice than others, the music industry as a whole seems divided when it comes to the referendum.
Before an official decision in made later this week, here are some influential musicians' opinions on Scottish independence, in their own words.
