Next Big Nashville is now accepting applications for the 2009 festival (Oct 7th – 11th). The submission process requires two songs, $10 and knowledge of basic information about your band. It should be noted that while the festival focuses on up and coming Nashville acts it is not exclusive to our fair city – submissions are welcome from any band interested in playing, regardless of where they call home. This will, presumably, garner more exposure for the festival and get a bit more variety in the lineups.
Get your submission in quickly as they are closing the door on applications July 13th. That’s a tiny bit over a month – not much time at all when it comes to mobilizing bands.
