BandLab and The FADER Partner To Amplify and Uplift African and Emerging Artists
Artists will connect with various industry powerhouses through BandLab Opportunities via ReverbNation, expanding their music industry connections by applying for unique opportunities to get their foot in the door.
Forward-thinking social music creation platform BandLab is partnering with The FADER to give a fresh platform to emerging artists. Starting this summer and running through the end of 2023, The FADER will select one artist each quarter from BandLab Opportunities via ReverbNation service for editorial coverage. Each artist will be interviewed by one of The FADER’s award-winning editorial staff and captured by a leading photographer in a custom shoot.
The feature will be posted on TheFADER.com’s homepage for 24 hours and will be pushed far and wide on The FADER’s social media, as well as appearing in The FADER’s daily newsletter.

US-born Nigerian afropop and afrobeat musician Duncan Daniels has been chosen by BandLab Opportunities via ReverbNation and The FADER to receive editorial coverage. The feature will be published today, July 29, 2022.
“The FADER has been built on helping to expose the best of emerging music and tell the stories of who is next in music. No platform offers the tools, community and opportunity for young artists the way BandLab does. We are excited to partner with BandLab and help to amplify and bring more attention to the great music being made through their platform,“ says co-CEO of The FADER Jon Cohen.
This partnership with The FADER is the first iteration of new BandLab Opportunities via ReverbNation. In addition to the chance for editorial coverage, BandLab artists can submit their music directly to other industry decision makers for consideration including venue and festival bookings, film and TV syncs, brand programs, and exposure to record labels.
“We are pleased to partner with industry-respected music platform The FADER to bring editorial coverage to artists selected through BandLab Opportunities via ReverbNation. Some of the leading names in music have been featured in their magazine, and we’re excited to see what this opportunity offers BandLab artists in their journey,” says CEO & Co-Founder of BandLab Meng Ru Kuok.
