Details, details:

Registration requires a recorded musical submission (video preferred). This can be as simple as a recording in your living room captured with your phone. Live or studio recordings are welcome. Only a single song or musical piece is required for the submission. We will email you with instructions for submitting your recording after you complete and send the form below. You will not be registered for the contest until you receive final confirmation after submitting your music.

Solos, duos, trios, and quartets may enter.

Musicians of all ages are welcome (though wine will only be awarded to winners over 21).

“Acoustic” is loosely defined but does NOT include drum sets, large guitar or bass amp cabinets, vacuum cleaners, etc… Keyboards, small amps, and hand drums/percussion are welcome. You will not receive extra points for being extra loud.

You'll be judged on musicality, emotional impact, and overall originality. Cover songs are permitted–pick the material you think you do best.

Each group will have 15 minutes to perform (we recommend 3 songs) and then should be prepared to clear the stage area quickly while the next performers set up.

If you play fifteen minutes and 1 second, please note that we have an eager squirrel on staff to chew through the PA power cable on command.

Performances will start on the half hour.

You are encouraged to invite fans and friends, of course. You will receive a time slot prior to the day of the event.
