South Asian Music Accelerator Announces 2026 Cohort

Now in its second year, ArtHaus's South Asian Music Accelerator program will take place in Toronto later this month, helping South Asian artists, songwriters and producers build sustainable careers.

ArtHaus has its foot back on the Accelerator.

The Toronto-based music and arts incubator is the driving force behind the South Asian Music Accelerator (SAMA), and it has just announced the 10 music creators selected for the 2026 cohort. The initiative brings together artists from Vancouver, Surrey, Kitchener, Brampton, Toronto, Milton and Ottawa working across country, Punjabi music, Tamil music, R&B, soul, hip-hop, pop and electronic production.
