Tones & I has added another impressive title to her ever-growing list of accolades, now being as the first Australian artist to be added to YouTube's Artist On The Rise program. 

The program aims to highlight new voices in music from around the globe through a dedicated tab on the YouTube site and through events. It's already included artists like Maggie Rogers, DaBaby, Rosalia and Jessie Reyez.

"This song is WOW. The video has taken the world by storm and I think we can all now see the way Tones & I shines," said YouTube's Global Head of Music, Lyor Cohen. 

"I tried to come up with own Dance Monkey routine and let's just say no one is begging to see me dance just one more time, and I should probably stick with being a record executive. We are excited to have Tones & I as our first Australian Artist On The Rise and to be a part of what comes next."

Tones & I is nominated for a whopping eight awards at tonight's ARIAs (find out more about it here) and earlier this month broke the all-time ARIA Chart record for long-running #1 single.
