World on Introducing

World on 3

Are you a brilliant Turkish saz player living in London? Or maybe a fine traditional Sufi singer in Birmingham? Perhaps you have a whole new take on folk roots music? You might be famous in your own community, but how do you get heard beyond that?

The answer could be the .

Since 2007 Ö÷²¥´óÐã Introducing has done a great job of picking up and promoting new talent across the UK, well supported by both Ö÷²¥´óÐã local and Ö÷²¥´óÐã network stations. But not all music fits into the music policy of the national stations. So this is where World on 3 comes in.

is Ö÷²¥´óÐã Radio’s only dedicated world music programme – and from 5th January, we will start using the Ö÷²¥´óÐã Introducing Uploader to discover your music. So get yourself recorded – it doesn’t have to be studio quality (though that’s always nice!), our ears know when we hear star quality.

The World on 3 team will listen to every submission. If we like what you upload, you could hear it being played on the programme. We might even ask you to come in and play live on air. And who knows, there may be a chance to play on the Ö÷²¥´óÐã stage at , the most prestigious world music festival around.

If Ö÷²¥´óÐã Introducing had been around in my day this is just the thing that would have given me and my band a chance to be heard across the UK and who knows maybe all over the World!

So, go on, upload your stuff to Ö÷²¥´óÐã Introducing and open up your music to a whole new world of possibilities.

Lopa presents World on 3, every Friday night on Ö÷²¥´óÐã Radio 3. The show is an eclectic mix of sounds from around the world, with exclusive sessions and concerts by leading musicians in world music. Find out more and listen to the show .
