SUBMIT YOUR MUSIC HERE (FREE)
A few weeks are left before the end of 2010, and the time has come for our end of year musical "summary". Yes, you got that right: The Deli’s "Best of 2010 Poll for Emerging Artists" is upon us!
Recent Winners: With recent winners including Local Natives, Yeasayer, Girls, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Chairlift, Those Darlins, Drink Up Buttercup,. Vivian Girls, Vampire Weekend, Reading Rainbow and High Places, our poll system has gathered a rock solid reputation.
Exposure + Prizes: To make things more interesting, the winners of the poll not only will get great exposure on The Deli’s website, but will also win prizes in Studio Time, Audio Equipment and what not from our various sponsors.
How it works: The process to determine the Year End Best of your scene’s list is rather complicated – if you want to try and get your head around it be our guest and go here. But if all you are interested in is to be part of it and get some exposure, then read on.
First phase: Open Submissions: The first phase of this poll allows ANY BAND OR SOLO ARTIST based in one of the scenes we cover to submit their music for a minimum of 3 spots in the pool of the Best of Your City 2010 nominees. This phase starts right NOW!
By submitting, you will also add your band to our chart system – which will get you some exposure (and probably some gigs) in the near future. To be eligible your band needs to have music available online and to have played live at least once in 2010 (and not be signed to a major label).
A team of Deli writers will select the artists that will be added to the pool of nominees for the next phase of the poll. The bands selected will be announced in early 2011.
Please spread the word about this and good luck!
***** Deadline for free submission is 11.30.2010 *****
After that date you’ll still be able to submit through SonicBids.com until December 15 paying $5
