Over the past three years, the Discovery Stage has become one of the highlights of Heartland Festival, providing a platform for some of Scotland’s most exciting emerging talent. Led by our Artist Liaison, Marion McDonald, the stage has introduced festivalgoers to incredible artists including David Delinquent and the I.O.U.s, Copper Lungs, Joe Goodall, Katie Nicoll and many more.

Over the next four weeks, our team will carefully review every application before reaching out to artists we’d like to discuss further.

Due to the high number of applications we receive each year, we’re unfortunately unable to respond to every submission individually. If you’re shortlisted, a member of the Heartland team will be in touch.

Good luck to everyone applying – we can’t wait to discover the next wave of incredible talent for the Scottish Citylink Discovery Stage.
