BBC Introducing Artist of the Year award goes to Myles Smith

Myles Smith has been announced as the winner of the ‘BBC Introducing Artist of the Year’ Award for 2024.

The award is presented to an artist who has, with the support of BBC Introducing, made a significant impact that year and is on the path to stardom.

Previous winners include Olivia Dean, Arlo Parks, Tom Grennan, Jack Garratt, Nia Archives, Declan McKenna, Celeste and Self Esteem.

At just 26 years old, Luton-born artist Myles Smith is fast becoming one of the most exciting voices in contemporary music and is best known for his song Stargazing.

He said: “That’s made my entire year, that’s incredible. I literally cannot believe I’m BBC Introducing Artist of the Year. It means so much to me to be awarded this award.

Myles was presented with the BBC Introducing Artist of the Year Award by Dean Jackson from BBC Introducing in East Midlands and Kerrie Cosh from BBC Introducing Three Counties & Northants—stations that have been pivotal in Myles’ career, with Dean giving Myles his first-ever radio play, marking the beginning of his relationship with BBC Introducing.
