Your Tate Track

101420-949143-thumbnail.jpgThe Tate Modern Museum in London has just launched a new initiative called Your Tate Track. The initiative is aimed at unsigned bands and musicians aged between 16 – 24. Your Tate Track asks unsigned musicians to choose a work of art from a selection on splay at Tate Modern and then to write a track in response to it. The public will vote on submitted tracks and the 20 most popular will go before a judging panel which will include, among others, Graham Coxon, Roll Deep, Basement Jaxx and Radio 1 DJ Huw Stephens.
 
The winning track will be installed in the gallery through headphones next to the work which inspired it and will be streamed on Tate's website. Tracks can be submitted until the 31 August.
