Shack Sounds is the talent development program for unsigned artists

Got music? This one's for you

Burger and milkshake connoisseur Shake Shack has teamed up with award-winning producer Naughty Boy on talent development program Shack Sounds.

If you're aged 16 to 35 and looking to kickstart a career in music, Shack Sounds is the place that could make that happen. All you've got to do is upload an audio or video file of music here by March 23.

The entries will be whittled down to five artists by Naughty Boy, whose track 'La La La', featuring Sam Smith, won a MOBO for Best Song and Best Video.

Winners will be made aware on March 30 and then be mentored by Naughty Boy, this process including studio time and the chance to make music with him. In May Shack Sounds events will kick off and the winners will eventually perform with Naughty Boy.

The producer said: “This collaboration could only happen with Shake Shack as they are a company who believe in the same values as I do, from creating flavoursome food with simple high-quality ingredients to believing that good food and good music goes hand in hand.”

Shake Shack CEO Randy Garutti added: “We’re thrilled to be working with one of the best producers in the music business. We both share a passion for creating experiences and we’ve always loved the idea of building community through music. We’re really excited about Shack Sounds UK, and we hope it creates awesome career opportunities for the many talented young musicians among our UK fans."
