News Sub Pop: Doing It For The Kids

Posted by Rob Simonsen on Tue, Mar 25 at 12:05 PM

Last year Sub Pop gave away $5,750 to one lucky kid via their Loser Scholarship, a program intended to help some little badass make their rock and roll dreams come true in college.

Well, this year they’re outdoing themselves, giving away not one but three scholarships:

Sub Pop Records in Seattle, WA is offering a grand total of $13,000 worth of college scholarship money to three eligible high school seniors. There are three scholarships—one for $6,000 and two for $3,500 each. To apply for these scholarships you must be a resident of Washington or Oregon, and a graduating senior on your way to full-time enrollment at an accredited university or college. We are looking for an applicant who is involved and/or interested in music and/or the creative arts in some way.

Many thanks to our Big Sister up north for the tip on this one.
