The Juried Sound Recording: Album program provides funding toward the costs of production of an original full-length sound recording.

The program is offered first as a standalone Sound Recording and this component must be completed and all expenses paid before February 27, 2026.  Once the sound recording is completed, funding for all related promotional release activities (Marketing, Tour Support, Video, Showcase, and Radio Marketing) can be applied for.

Financial support is set at 50% of eligible expenses, to a maximum reimbursement of $10,000, all of which must support the sound recording.

In order to fill out a JSR: Album application in the FACTOR online system, you will first need a rated Artist Profile and Applicant Profiles.

This program’s deadline has passed.
