Sound Off Applications Due Next Week

Posted by MEGAN SELING at 01:35 PM

Are you in a band? Are all the band’s members 21 or under (and will be until at least February of 2007)? Do you want to play at the EMP in front of tons of people and possibly win prizes like studio time, gear, and cash?

If you’re screaming “Yes, goddammit, YES!” then you should enter EMP’s annual Sound Off! underage band competition.

They’re currently accepting entires from all genres—rap, hiphop, rock, punk, indie, electronic, etc.—and all you have to do is fill out a form, send in a demo, and cross your fingers for luck. All demos will get listened to by a roundtable of judges, with the top nine moving on to the semi-finals and performing at the EMP in February. All necessary information is available here.

Applications are due November 15, which is a week and a day away. Get on it, kiddos.
