Congratulations to the latest recipients for the New Music Pasifika funding, provided by NZ On Air.  For the January round, 21 artists have been confirmed to receive this funding, which will support the recording process, video content and promotion.    

The New Music Pasifika funding is provided for Pacific artists, who are NZ citizens or permanent residents; and have a great unreleased song. NZ On Air has confirmed this funding is for our Pacific artists, with up to $10,000 available for an unreleased song - which can now include a $1,000 (10%) Artist Creation Fee.  This is a wonderful opportunity for our Pacific artists to receive financial support for their music.
  
The Pacific Music Awards Trust thanks and acknowledges the team at NZ On Air for their continued support for our Pacific artists.  Thank you so much for New Music Pasifika!   We understand how valuable the funding is and we know this will impact the wider Pacific music community as well.  We look forward to celebrating each song and video as they are released.   Congratulations everyone!
