SOLO SINGERS, BANDS AND GROUPS ENTER NOW

All audition dates above are for bands, groups and solo artists. On the day of the audition you will be asked to prepare a performance of up to 2 minutes and no longer (we recommend you keep instrumentals and intro to a minimum and perform the best part of your song at the start). It’s all about first impressions at auditions so ensure you take attention to your image and always put the best of your song in the intro for maximum impact! The auditions are closed to the public and will be in front of a professional judging panel. Hundreds of acts audition each day and are allocated times across the whole day to avoid unnecessary waiting around and congestion. If you intend to sing a cover, try and make it your own version as the competition is all about originality. Bands just need to bring drum sticks, guitars (including leads) and any other instruments as auditions will have drum kit, amplifiers and microphones already set up so you can just plug in and play. Solo acts can bring one instrument only or if they have their own original music they can bring a CD backing track otherwise solo acts will perform a capella. Please have it in mind to keep your set up as simple as possible to avoid eating into your audition time.

You’ll be auditioning for a place in the Live and Unsigned regional finals showcase so make an impression and hopefully you’ll bag a place in the Live shows. Ensure your audition date and time is in your diary and we look forward to seeing you there! 

If in the event you are ill or unable to make the nearest audition to you, please contact webteam@LiveandUnsigned.UK.com to audition elsewhere and if you are successful we will endeavour to place you into the regional final closest to you.
