We are pleased to announce the final shortlist for the UK Showcase Tour -  a big congratulations to all those who have been successful!

It has been such a difficult decision to make from such a vast number of awesome applications. For those not selected this time around, please be aware there will be further opportunities for you ahead, including more UK showcase gigs and international touring opportunities. This is by no means the end.
