Frequently Asked Questions
Who will be reviewing my audition tape?
All auditions will be reviewed by the audition committee.
When will I know if I am selected to perform at the You Matter Festival?
Performers will be selected and posted on our website by April 30th, 2020.
Can I submit a studio recording for my audition?
No. Since the You Matter Festival is a live performance, the audition committee will be evaluating performers based on videos of a live performance or rehearsal.
What genre of music will the audition committee consider?
All genres are encouraged.
Do I need to do an original song or can I do a cover?
Either is acceptable. Submit a song that you feel showcases your talents and abilities best.
What if my song has explicit lyrics or content?
You are auditioning for a family show. If the song is not appropriate to perform at the festival, then it is not an appropriate audition song.
What if I am selected and then have a conflict that prevents me from playing at the festival?
Again, by submitting an audition, you are committing to perform on August 15th at the festival.
For my additional 1 minute video, does my whole band have to be in the video?
It is often best to have one spokesperson but if at all possible have all of your band members in the video.
