Jersey, your island needs you.

Music Muratti is here, and this time it's the bands settling it. Jersey vs Guernsey, one stage, one winner.

If you're in a band and you're under 18, this is yours. Submit a demo (it's free), get picked by a panel of UK industry judges, and the selected bands play the final. One island walks away champion. The best band from each island wins a full recording session.

The final's on Guernsey turf this year. Even more reason to go and win it.

So, what does Jersey sound like?

Enter now at sopm.je. Deadline Saturday 4 July 2026.
