Since 2015, BBC Music Introducing and PRS Foundation have been working together to support and create a platform for the UK’s most talented artists to showcase at overseas music industry events. So far more than 20 artists, who have uploaded their music to the BBC Music introducing uploader, have been selected via BBC Music Introducing and PRS Foundation’s teams of experts, tastemakers and advisors from across the UK, to perform at BBC Music Introducing and PRS Foundation showcases.

PRS Foundation Programme Manager Bhavesh PAtel says, “We’re excited to be bringing our BBC Music Introducing and PRS Foundation showcase to ADE festival for the first time. We know how important overseas showcasing is to an artists’ career development, as seen in our recent report on international showcasing, and so we’re delighted to be supporting these four brilliant artists to have this opportunity to showcase in Amsterdam.”

BBC Music editor Dan Roberts Introducing says “Following on from our stage at Cream fields this year, our showcase at ADE is another step towards improving BBC Music Introducing’s commitment to dance music. We’re really excited to see this great line up of exciting live electronic artists play their first international gig.”

The ADE will take place from 18 to 22 October.
