Call for Musicians

As the proclaimed ‘Live Music Capital of The World,’ WCATX is bringing a musical element to WordCamp this year! We want to bring the opportunity to showcase the musical talents of the members of the WordPress community across the globe through performances between sessions. 

FAQ

Q: Will I need to submit an audition?

Yes! In order, to be considered for a musical slot, we’ll need to see your talents. You can submit an audition video or perform live for the organizers.

Q: Will the performance be live-streamed or pre-recorded?

Depends on what you are comfortable with! If you decide to do it live, we will give you extensive technical support when you give your performance.

Q: What if I’m not a professional musician?

We don’t expect you to be! We know that lots of WordPress community members have “hidden talents,” something they don’t normally get to express on a daily basis. We want you to be able to showcase any sort of musical ability you have, as a novice or a pro.

Q: What if I’m a singer? Does that count?

Absolutely! We want to hear from singers, beat-boxers, rappers, and anything else you can think of that isn’t a traditional “instrument.”

Q: How long will my performance be?

We are hoping you’ll be able to perform anywhere from 2-5 songs.

Q: Do I need to perform original songs, or can I perform covers, too?

You can perform both! Covers, originals, or a mix. Totally up to you.
