This is the original purpose of the event and the most beneficial. This is the portion of the conference where attendees will be able to showcase your music in front of major A&Rs, and Who Knows What Could Happen! The options for music presentations are 2-recorded songs played for 1.5 minutes per song, a live performance for 2.5 minutes, or 2-recorded songs played along with a live performance.

The second panel discussion will focus on the ins and outs of the music industry, what does and does not make a hit, and what major labels are currently interested in.

On all CDs should have contact information (number, email, Twitter, etc). This does not guarantee you a deal. Our A&R deptarment will listen to all items left in Demo box and add you to our mailing list for future CVI information
1-on-1 listening sessions information?
A chance for attendees to have a private music critiquing with A&Rs. This option only gives the opinions of playing a CD, while the Sunday audition allows you to perform your music the way you would like it to BE HEARD!
What is Saturday first panel discuss ?
The first panel discussion is about the “Independent Artist,” which focuses on how to build your niche as an independent in a crowded music industry, how to select the right marketplace for your music, how to make yourself marketable, and of course, how to make your music profitable.

Saturday is a more beneficial day and you receive information and have an opportunity to present your music with a single A&R.
Group Pricing?
We only offer a special group rate on Saturday for groupsof 3 or more individuals. This registeration is a special and must be done via email contact. If a group elects to do a 1-on-1 session they will not need to purchase separate ones for each individual unless they are providing individual items to be evaluated.
