The programme is open to Black women and non-binary music creators based in the South West of England.

Saffron Records has announced its 2022-2023 artist development project. The six-month long programme will provide three participants with the support and tools to develop their music and creative practice.

Alongside the commission, the selected artists will receive a range of opportunities and support including one-to-one mentorship, music industry masterclasses and a Saffron membership as well as taking part in a residential artists retreat and performing at a showcase event. Artists previously supported by Saffron Records’ artist development programme include Grove, Sarahsson, Ratiba Ayadi and Badliana.
