Manchester-based band Westside Cowboy have been named the winners of Glastonbury's 2025 Emerging Talent Competition, which is supported by PRS for Music and the PRS Foundation.
Westside Cowboy have won a slot on the Woodsies Stage at Glastonbury 2025, plus a £5,000 Talent Development prize from the PRS Foundation. The band were shortlisted alongside the likes of Master Peace, Nat Oakes, and Sarah Meth.
The judges – who included Michael and Emily Eavis, Glastonbury stage bookers and music business professionals – gave the two runners-up places to Ghana-born, Gloucester-raised neo-soul / hip-hop act Nat Oaks and Welsh language singer-songwriter Mali Hâf. Both acts receive a £2,500 Talent Development prize from the PRS Foundation.
