Sound and Music's New Voices represents some of the most exciting artists working in Britain today. The scheme focuses on raising the profile for artists who exist outside of the support of commercial publishers or record companies.

Coming from an enormous range of musical backgrounds, each New Voices artist has been an Artist-in-Residence with one of the UK's leading creative organisations, or individuals, through Sound and Music’s Embedded or Portfolio programmes, selected through a highly competitive open process to create new work with and for their hosts.
