Vote For Your Favorite Massachusetts Entry From NPR Music's Tiny Desk Contest
There was so much talent among the over 150 Tiny Desk Contest entries from Massachusetts that it was tough to choose our favorites. But after a lot of listening and much consideration, our panelists cast their votes, and produced this incredible crop of finalists: 16 of the finest unsigned musicians and songwriters our state has to offer.
In the coming weeks, our panel will select a Grand Prize winner from among the finalists, earning them a coveted slot at the WERS Wicked Good Festival on Aug. 18, alongside headliners like Bleachers and Buffalo Tom.
While our judges deliberate, we wanted to give you a chance to weigh in, too. Watch the entries below, and vote for your favorite from among the 16 finalists. (Skip down to vote.) The Fan Favorite wins a gig at WBUR’s new performance space, CitySpace, which is scheduled to debut in 2019.
We're only counting on vote per person. Voting closes at midnight on Sunday, July 8.
