The Hitmaker Fund offers an opportunity for songwriters and producers working in popular music genres to further develop their careers and writing/production with grants of between £5,000 – £10,000.
We are looking for applications from songwriters and producers to make strong cases for support by demonstrating that they are:
- At a crucial tipping point stage in their career.
- Have a previous track record of getting recent cuts, co-writes and collaborations.
- Are proactive with their own careers to get cuts, co-writes and collaborations.
- Are clear on the type of records they want to write and produce.
- Must be able to propose where the funding will be spent, how it will help take them to the next stages in their career and develop them creatively and professionally.
- We are unable to support artists signed to ‘major label deals’.
Applicants must have at least 5 credited works registered with PRS for Music – this means a reputable cut / songs that have national radio plays / streaming plays / from a reputable writing camp.
This application is not for writers and producers just starting out, demoing and developing. We are looking for writers and producers with successes in their writing careers and applicants must have a previous track record.Applicants must submit at least 2 commercially exploited works for consideration and advisors will listen to at least 2 submitted works.* Eligible applicants will be for non-performing or behind the scenes songwriters and producers.
