Actor Matthew McConaughey is turning his attentions to a new project - he has set up his own record company.

The Fool's Gold star has already signed his first act - a reggae singer - and is approaching other major music labels for backing.

A source tells New York gossip column PageSix, "He's looking for a distribution deal with all the major labels for his own label.

"His first artist is a reggae guy called Mishka. The album will be called Above the Bones and the first single is Here Comes Da Train."

McConaughey's spokesman has confirmed that the star has set up his own record label but insisted there is currently no date set for the company's debut release.
