I think you'll find that one or more of the tracks by this artist have
an ARTISTSORT tag it only needs one track to have this and it affects
all tracks. Load all this artist's tracks (including and *especially*
compilation album tracks) into a decent tag app, *mp3tag* would be my
choice, and check the "extended tags" for an ARTISTSORT tag.
