You've been into songwriting for a while, have a few songs of your own and feel itchy to share them with the world? Then this open call might just be the push you needed to get your music out there!

For this ultimate showcase opportunity, we collaborate with The Rua Room, a real singer-songwriter studio with accompanying YouTube channel for Belgian and foreign artists.

What will you get? A showcase in a concert setting with an audience, recorded in high quality. Afterwards, the recordings are also posted on The Rua Room's YouTube channel so your work gets extra visibility.

Want to take the leap? Then send an email to reindert@wisper.be before 21 April along with a demo, audio clip or link to your songs. You will hear by 15 May at the latest whether you end up in the line-up for this exclusive showcase.

Please note, the showcase is for solo projects, duos and trios. As a band, you can only submit with an acoustic set in this capacity. However, your demo may be a recording of the band in its full set-up.

Joining

Send an email to reindert@wisper.be before 21 April along with a demo, audio clip or link to your songs. You will hear by 15 May at the latest whether you end up in the line-up for this exclusive showcase.

Practical

Send in your demo and a small introduction of your project to reindert@wisper.be by 1 April.

Level of experience

Level 4: For advanced songwriters, who want to seize the opportunity to bring their music to the stage and later share a video with the world.
