Let’s wind back the clock to 2003. Beyonce smashed into the charts at Number 1 with her debut solo single ‘Crazy In Love’. Apple launched the first ever iTunes Store and music consumers gradually started shifting from CDs to digital formats. Everyone was wearing Ugg boots.

Here at The Unsigned Guide we launched the first edition of our music industry directory (it used to be a printed book back then), and 21 years on we’re still going strong.

Before the likes of Spotify, social media and BBC Introducing existed, we’ve been helping grassroots bands and artists propel their careers to the next level. Over the years our music directory has been used by thousands of under the radar acts to reach out to record labels, booking agents, producers & studios, artist managers, venues & gig promoters, music festivals, PR companies & pluggers, and beyond.

These days there are more opportunities than ever before available to emerging artists, allowing you to take the reins of your own blossoming music career, and The Unsigned Guide is the perfect tool to help you do this.

We do the time-consuming research and compile the essential contacts (straddling 50 areas of the music business) in one place, ready at your fingertips, so you can focus on creating music, playing gigs and growing your fanbase. The Unsigned Guide directory can be searched by music genre, regions/cities of the UK, and many more specialist filters to bring up results tailored to you.

Making music contacts accessible. That’s what we do. And we’re still doing it.

We’d love to celebrate our 21st anniversary with you by offering a massive 50% discount on an annual subscription to The Unsigned Guide UK music industry directory. For just £16.49 (RRP £32.99) you can access thousands of music contacts, plus submit your song to us for Spotlight and you could be featured on our tastemaker blog and radio show.

Sign up here using EXPIRED to get 50% off an annual subscription (that’s less than £1.50 per month). No ties, you can cancel whenever you’re ready.
