New year, new playlist? Absolutely. VEVO, the video hosting powerhouse and official YouTube partner, has unveiled the 2024 list of up-and-coming artists climbing the charts, set to make waves as we turn the pages of another year. “DSCVR Artists To Watch” is an annual taste-maker program, now in its tenth year, spotlighting emerging global artists poised to break through in the year ahead. Starting Wednesday, November 8th, Vevo’s DSCVR ATW will showcase high-quality live performance video content from the class of 2024, with two unique performances from each artist, shot exclusively for Vevo.
“For the past decade, we’ve had the privilege of watching the alumni of this program go from talented emerging artists to global superstars,” said JP Evangelista, SVP, Content, Programming and Marketing, at Vevo. “From Billie Eilish to Sam Fender, Ice Spice to Wet Leg, to Feid and beyond, the exceptional amount of diverse talent our past list members have is astounding, to say the least. Today, we are thrilled to announce the lineup for 2024.”
The program is one of the most highly anticipated and competitive lists in the emerging music space—this year, they received more than 600 submissions. The artists and bands that make it to the selection receive critical exposure and promotion, as they will be marketed and featured in Vevo’s expert music video programming via playlists and editorial features across Vevo’s network, including YouTube and connected TV platforms, helping propel their careers.
