Vanessa Reed, Executive Director of PRS for Music Foundation says:
“Congratulations to all the songwriters and bands who've been supported following the latest deadline for Momentum Music Funding. It's thanks to the huge array of talent in this country that each round of funding continues to be so competitive and to generate such strong results: for those who have completed their projects, £1 from Momentum is generating £7.46 for the music industry. I’m looking forward to seeing the latest artists benefit from Momentum and get to that next stage of their careers.”
The Momentum Music Fund is a special grant given to musicians looking to enter the next stage of their career, and previous recipients include Years & Years, Ghostpoet, and East India Youth.
