PITTSBURGH, PA –
WYEP’s Youth Media Project, Re(imagine) Media is proud to announce that it is accepting
applications for the music part of its annual youth music and arts festival, Re(imagiNATION).
The festival will be held on May 4.
Whether a novice
solo act or a band that’s been together for years, this is a great opportunity
for exposure in the Pittsburgh music scene. The top five acts that are chosen
from the audition videos will perform in front of a live audience and win a
mentorship with a local artist. The winning act will also receive recording
time in a professional recording studio and a customized press kit.
At least one
member of the act must be from Southwestern Pennsylvania, and at least one
member of the act must be high school aged (14-18). All songs performed must be
original; meaning no covers. Acts can be of any genre, as long as that act
contains some form of instrumentation. Applications are due by April 5.
For more
information, and to get the application, visit WYEP’s website, wyep.org. Applications
can be submitted online, or emailed to Matthew Spangler. For more information,
please contact Matthew Spangler at matthew@wyep.org
