Serving as both a new music discovery platform and a mentoring scheme - Future Bubblers aims to support left-field music by offering advice and practical support to the acts hand-picked from the multitude of applications received. Future Bubblers 3.0 continues the tradition of wonky electronica, soulful rhythms and jazz infused bops.

From the Mancunian twang of Blind MIC to the free-flowing improvised hip-hop of NuTribe, the velvety vocals of Shunaji to the sultry r'n'b tinged Aaliyah Esprit - this new generation of creative and progressive musicians here showcase their individual skill - as well as the unifying and supportive 'extended family' ethos that comes from working as part of Future Bubblers.
