Well, thanks to Sandman Magazine, you could be in with a chance! Here’s the blurb…
2006 saw the 2nd outing for the Unsigned Stage at the Carling Weekend: Leeds Festival and another triumph.
Over 30 unsigned Northern bands played over 3 days last year including the likes of Stoney, The Somatics, Vib Gyor, Snowfight in the City Centre, O Fracas, Napoleon IIIrd, The Interiors, Viva High Rollers, Champion Kickboxer, The Scaramanga Six, The Guild, Four Day Hombre, The Bonnitts, Little Ze, The Dirty Dreamers, The Lodger, Mr Beasley, D-Koy and The Landaus.
Next year we’ll be saying how you played the festival alongside the Chilli Peppers, Maximo Park and Arcade Fire - or will we?
Well, not if you don’t send your demo in. It’s simple, send in 2 tracks on CD, (not minidisc, not via email as an MP3, not as a DVD, not on tape or vinyl or any other format you can think of), clearly labelled and with your contact details. We’ll have a listen, whittle them down to a reasonable number and then pass them to independent judges who last year included Clint Boon XFM, Alan Smyth 2Fly Studios, Jane Kitson BBC Radio Sheffield and Dave Sugden leedsmusicscene.co.uk, who will pick the winners.
If you are interested in trying to secure a slot for yourself or your band please send your demo to the address below by Monday 4th June:
