Every season, musicians are nominated for consideration by Sonic Guild members, our music industry mentors, and past grant recipients.

Every artist nominated by Sonic Guild will receive a grant. And every artist who plays for Sonic Guild is paid for every show whether they are nominated or not. Bands are able to use these funds to fuel their music careers in the way they deem most necessary and impactful. We also provide mentoring from local and national music industry professionals to help our artists make informed decisions with their grants.
