The Open Fund for Music Creators

The Open Fund for Music Creators supports the development of outstanding music creators of all genres and backgrounds at different stages of their career with grants of up to £5,000. The fund prioritizes three key areas: supporting the creation, performance and promotion of outstanding new music in any genre with a focus on quality; enabling the UK's most talented music creators to realise their potential through activities crucial to their creative or professional development; and ensuring projects reach audiences at local, regional, national or international levels. Previous recipients include Young Fathers, Afrodeutsche, Jasdeep Singh and Ruth Lyon. The foundation is committed to supporting UK-based songwriters and composers of all backgrounds and over 400 new music projects receive support every year.
