    URGENT: Wanted Two Bands for Label Consideration

    There is currently a search for two types of bands for record label consideration.

    *** Note: PLEASE IDENTIFY IF YOU ARE IN GROUP 1 OR 2 IN THE SUBJECT LINE OF YOUR RESPONSE. Emails are being reviewed by different representatives.

    1. A Pop/Rock/Commercial band with female lead. Band must consist of 2 guitars (Prefer both guitar players to be of lead caliber. However, one lead and one rhythm is acceptable), keyboard/piano, bass, and drums. Lead vocal, followed by backing vocals, in that order, is a plus as it relates to other members of the group. Average age of the band cannot exceed 28 years of age.

    * Group must have an outstanding lead vocalist.
    ** Musicianship throughout the entire band must be very strong.
    *** Group cannot currently be under any contract of any type that is related to the music industry.


    2. A Modern Rock band with male lead. Must be a complete band but there are no prerequisites as it relates to the make up of the band. Average age of the band cannot exceed 23 years of age.

    * Group must have an outstanding lead vocalist.
    ** Musicianship throughout the entire band must be very strong.
    *** Group cannot currently be under any contract of any type that is related to the music industry.

    XXX - If you meet the minimum qualifications as described above. Email a link for your MySpace Page and if applicable, a link for your website to: recordingartistsearch@gmail.com

    Only send one email with your links. Due to the volume of responses normally received for these types of opportunities. After review of your material, you will only be contacted if there is an interest in attending one of your shows by a label representative. As such please to not send any follow up emails regarding selections. If you were not contacted back, there was not an interest.

    Thank You.

    Hey,
    Maybe we should make a banner out of carpet. That's a great idea.

    I still thinks it was.

    Support the Indianapolis songwriter community!




    Hello there! If I've already been in touch on this please bear with me but I'm trying to get the word out about www. indianapolissongwriterscafe. com

    I'm working to create a place that ties together all the people, places & events that are relevant for an Indianapolis songwriter or a fan of this kind of music. There's also a community calendar (that needs a lot of dates added to it) that will soon be a one-stop shop for any songwriterish shows going on around Indy.

    Please visit the site and if you've got a moment please add www. myspace. com/indianapolissongwriterscafe to your friends list.

    If you'd really like to help spread the word I'd be grateful as can be if you copied the little piece of code from either the ISC website or myspace page to display the banner on your page. Just drop me a line if you'd like to but aren't sure how.
