Four North East music acts secured five-figure touring support through a new partnership aimed at helping regional artists take their music on the road. These acts are recipients of the UK Artist Touring Fund (UKAT) and will each receive up to £10,000. The funding is provided by a partnership between the Northern Music Export Office, supported by the Tees Valley Combined Authority, and the Featured Artists Coalition.
