Amy Winehouse was recently nominated for three Ivor Novello awards
|
Singer Amy Winehouse has been included in this year's Sunday Times young music rich list for the first time with an estimated fortune of £10m.
The 24-year-old star ranks 10th, along with R&B star Craig David and pop star Will Young, in Britain's top 100 richest people in music under 30.
Charlotte Church, 22, is ninth with a fortune of £11m shared with rugby star Gavin Henson. Joss Stone is eighth.
George Harrison's son Dhani Harrison tops the list with a £160m fortune.
The 29-year-old musician is the only son of the former Beatle, and finished Harrison's last album after he died in 2001.
Doubled wealth
In second place is violinist Vanessa-Mae Nicholson, 29, followed by Coldplay trio Guy Berryman, Jonny Buckland and Will Champion, with an estimated £30m each in the bank.
Lead singer Chris Martin, 31, was too old to be included in the newspaper's survey.
