To all the bands from the Dublin area: are you ready to play in the coolest venues in town? The new Emergenza edition is about to start, with plenty of news. First thing, this year Emergenza and Marshall decided to get together to support the bands, which means that from now on every single guitar player and bass player playing on our stages, will have to chance to try out the new JVM tube amps, 4 channels (for guitar) and VBA amps (bass)!!! The festival in Dublin will be in three steps, starting from November. The 1st step at the Village, the semi-finals at Temple bar Music Centre and the Irish final will be once again held at the amazing Vicar Street. It sounds like it would be a crime not to give it a try!!! But there’s something more you must know. The best bands might even have one of their tunes picked to be part of the annual Emergenza CD, which will be out in 15,000 copies by June and will be distributed for free at all the biggest finals in Europe. Furthermore, your band could be chosen to play abroad at one (or more!!) of the Best of Emergenza showcases around Europe. Want to hear more? This year Emergenza Festival is also working together with GOOM Radio. The newly born Web radio will create a station called EMERGENZA by GOOM, the radio for live artists, where bands will have the chance to create their own station. Last, but definitely not least, starting from the 2008 edition, the bands subscribing to the festival will be able to sell their music and eventually even find a publishing deal on Sound Reef. Enrol your band now on www.emergenza.net , where you will also find all the info about the festival, or call the 01 44 29 565.
