BBC Introducing
The Verb is now part of the BBC Introducing family! BBC Introducing is an initiative for new artists to get their music heard across the BBC’s networks, both local and national. We're looking for new, Verb-friendly spoken-word artists, rappers, ranters, stand-up storytellers, performance poets and writers who like to say their work aloud in whatever form they write it. And the good news is you can now send us audio tracks of your work via BBC Introducing’s uploader tool. Click on the BBC Introducing link and go to ‘upload your music’ to send us material. Our team of dedicated Verb staff will listen to the work and if we like it, it could end up on the programme.
