BIGSOUND Live Applications Extended

Don’t miss your chance to play the massive showcase event.

The 2013 BIGSOUND Live is going to be even bigger and better than the 2013 instalment, from what we hear, which is kind of ridiculous given how incredible the line up for last year's event was.

It's not too late to apply to be a part of the massive Brisbane showcase; if your band is looking to make some serious inroads in the Brisbane music scene then you should certainly be applying for the September showcase series so you can perform in front of some of the world's most important music industry figures.

While applications were supposed to close this time next week, the organisers understand that some bands can be a little disorganised or just plain busy, so they've extended the application deadline to Monday 20 May. But then that's it! The first program announcement will be happening on Thursday 9 May and we can't wait to see who is on there.

If you want to attend the BIGSOUND conference itself, you can grab a pass at early bird rates from now until Monday 20 May, which will save you a fair amount of cash; so if you're hitting Brisbane this September then we strongly recommend you get involved!

BIGSOUND happens from Wednesday 11 September to Friday 13 in Brisbane's Fortitude Valley.
