This summer things have been ticking over with our partnership with Youth Music, so we wanted to keep you up to speed with what’s been happening.
July
We sat in a room with Youth Music and a selection of industry experts to go through the hundreds of applications from talented artists and creatives who had applied for the NextGen Fund.
The day ended with us awarding 32 artists the NextGen Fund of up to £2500.
August
Out of the 32 artists we are championing 4 Artists.
Meet The Artists, show them support and follow them.

We are so excited to be supporting these artists with their upcoming projects.
What else happened in August?
We hosted a few of our previous NextGen cohort artists with a few of our new artists at Turtle Bay Walthamstow for an evening of sharing success stories, rum and great Caribbean soul food. It was a pleasure to connect these artists with each other as they all embark on such a journey.
Finally, August saw a huge success for Keanan Sayce, who was one of the NextGen fund round two recipients.
Keanan released his debut Album Exhibit Green which is out NOW!
The Album takes us through a musical journey with punchy lines and some fantastic hooks. It’s a must-listen, we have it on repeat. Congratulations Keanan, we are looking forward to seeing what’s next for you.
We will keep you up to date with all the magic with Youth Music and the amazing Artists.
