Join Your Regional Listening Circle

Listening Spaces Network connects emerging artists with certified independent businesses committed to prioritising local music within their own communities.

We believe artists deserve to be heard where they are from.

Participation is free.
Applications are reviewed to maintain balanced regional representation.

How It Works

Each Listening Circle represents a defined geographic region.

Artists based within that region may apply for inclusion. Applications are reviewed to ensure:

• Regional alignment
• Ongoing creative activity
• Original work
• Balanced representation across genres and communities

Accepted artists become part of a curated regional cohort whose music is integrated into certified Listening Spaces within their area.

This is not about algorithms.
It is about community listening.

Who Can Apply

You may apply if:

• You are currently based within an active Listening Circle region
• You create original music
• You are actively writing, recording, or performing

Listening Spaces Network prioritises emerging artists but welcomes a diversity of styles, backgrounds, and experiences.

Regional Structure

Listening Spaces Network operates region by region.

The first Listening Circle launched in Donegal.

Additional regions will be introduced as the network grows.
