In the UK it seems standard to refer to a band, or a business, or any group of people with a collective name, in the plural: "Virgin Records proudly declare that Atomic Kitten are the most exciting band of the new millenium." In the US, a singular name behaves like a singular noun and a plural name refers to a plural noun, regardless of how many people these nouns reference: "Rolling Stone takes issue with claims to the effect that Atomic Kitten has any redeeming qualities."
