Fame Music and Coffee House Sessions are launching a new competition to find the best acoustic artists in the country. Check out how you can enter below.

Stripped Back, whose judges include BBC Radio 1 presenter Huw Stephens and singer-songwriter Nina Nesbitt, "seeks to unearth the most talented acoustic artists in the country and offer them unique career opportunities."

The grand prize includes featuring on the Coffee House Sessions London tour, across 10 independent coffee shops, and production of one track with Eric Appapoulay at Abbey Road.

"In a time where music has lost its soul," reads the caption of the YouTube video for the competition, "here is a chance for you to bare yours." The first part of that sentence is categorically wrong, but you should enter anyway.

To enter, aspiring artists simply have to upload one original track and intro video here. Public voting opens at the end of this month to select the top 25 tracks, which will then be submitted to the judging panel.
