Glastonbury Festival has announced the longlist for their 2017 Emerging Talent Competition.
The 120 strong list was picked by a judging panel made up of 40 music writers and will soon be whittled down to a shortlist of just 8.
Those 8 will then compete at April’s live finals for a slot on one of the main stages at this year’s Festival.
The winners of the competition will also be awarded a £5,000 PRS for Music Foundation Talent Development prize, to help take their songwriting and performing to the next level. Two runners-up will also each be awarded a £2,500 PRS for Music Foundation Talent Development prize.
You can listen to the full longlist below - including The Line of Best Fit's own picks Housewives, Strange Boy, Soham De, Tokio, Tinyman and Stella Talpo. You can read a little more about each one over on Glastonbury's website.
