Submissions will be accepted between March 1st to the 31st
Global digital music company Believe and its independent digital music distribution outlet TuneCore recently announced that India-based artists will be eligible for a grant once again.
The ₹100,000 will be applicable to musicians across Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam-speaking regions. The third edition of the TuneCore Grant is a testament to TuneCore’s unwavering commitment to nurturing raw talent and amplifying diverse voices in the global music landscape. Artists, armed with their melodies and narratives, can now embark on a journey of artistic emancipation by submitting their music for consideration.
Artists can enter by submitting a single to be judged by a panel of industry experts consisting of Sam C.S (music composer), Ghibran (music composer), Neha Nair (singer/songwriter) and Padmanaban N.S. (Head of Artist and Label Partnerships at Spotify India).
Akhila Shankar, Head of TuneCore, South Asia said in a statement, “We’ve seen a burgeoning independent music scene emerging from the South with more artists choosing to create music in their native tongue. This is both worth celebrating and amplifying. With TuneCore Grant Punjabi we saw that the program directly led to a 40 percent increase in the number of TuneCore artists releasing music in the language. With each edition of the Grant, we hope to encourage more artists to release independently, express themselves in their language of choice, and contribute to India’s robust, diverse culture.”
