Tom Gortler, Autumn Caveny and Anya Lang are among the finalists for the Academy of Contemporary Music’s (ACM) BASCA Scholarship.
The three students are all studying the Creative Songwriting and Artist Development pathway as part of a two-year degree route. The finalists have been chosen on the strength of their audition pieces.
The finalists will perform in front of a specially selected industry panel at the BASCA Summer Party on 15 August where 2016’s winner will be announced.
Kaya Herstad-Carney, pathway leader, creative artist, ACM, said: ‘It's amazing to have BASCA as a partner and be able to offer a scholarship to one of our promising young songwriters. This could really make a difference for the winner, enabling them to concentrate fully on music rather than having to focus on, for instance, having a part-time job. That could give them a head start in their career!’
ACM’s BASCA Scholarship was first offered in 2015 when talented student Ivan Proctor was chosen as the first recipient.
ACM still has limited places available to study at both their Guildford and London campuses. Applications via clearing are now being accepted on the institution’s website.
