🎶 The Tiny Desk Contest is back! 🎶

The beloved NPR Music Tiny Desk Contest returns for its 12th year, giving unsigned musicians a chance to shine.

🗓 Entries open: Jan. 13 at 10 AM ET
⏰ Deadline: Feb. 9 at 11:50 PM ET

Public radio stations—like WQLN NPR 91.3 FM—play a vital role in discovering and supporting new music, and this contest is a perfect example of that mission in action.

The idea is simple: record an original song at a desk of your choice and submit it. A panel of NPR Music staff, music journalists, industry leaders, and Tiny Desk alums will select one grand prize winner—who’ll perform a Tiny Desk Concert and headline a U.S. tour alongside standout artists from the contest community.
