FAQ

The application shouldn’t take too long, no more than 15 minutes - we just ask a few basic questions to help us get to know you and your practice better, and an opportunity to upload relevant links.  

Applications for the latest round of Future Bubblers closes on Friday 30th May at 10PM.

We’ll be selecting up to 10 Future Bubblers – a mix of emerging artists including singers, rappers, spoken word poets, producers, beat makers, musicians, as well as people interested in creative technology, and those looking to build careers behind the scenes in the industry. If you’re selected, we’ll be in touch to arrange a video call at a time that suits you. We’ll chat about where you’re at creatively and start thinking about which mentor would be the best fit to support your development.

As the programme unfolds, you’ll get access to workshops, mentoring, live music opportunities, and the chance to build a better understanding of how the music industry works, and how it can work for you. You’ll have support from the Future Bubblers team, your mentor, and a wider network of creatives who’ve been through the journey. We also encourage everyone in the group to connect and collaborate, some of the best stuff happens when you build together.

No. However, if you are younger than 16 we will need to obtain parental/guardian’s consent if you are selected as a final successful Future Bubbler candidate.

Unfortunately not. Future Bubblers is all about grass roots music. Creatives with no real previous music industry experience or exposure are the project’s priority. Just because you don’t have a manager, an agent, even a soundcloud doesn’t mean you aren’t making perfect Future Bubblers’ vibes. This is more about potential rather than previous experience.

We will notify the successful candidates by early July 2025. You will be contacted by email so please ensure that you provide us with correct and complete contact details.

Just because you aren’t selected as a “Future Bubbler” doesn’t mean that you cannot come along for the ride. There are many ways for you to remain part of the Future Bubblers story and benefit from the resources and opportunities. We will add all applicants to our mailing list and keep them up to date with local Future Bubblers activities and events. Please inform us if you do not wish to be added to the mailing list
