How to Prepare for Singing Auditions!

Singers: Please prepare a one-minute excerpt that showcases your vocal range and ability in one of the following genres: Pop, R&B, Rap, Rock, Country, Alternative or Broadway. No accompaniment will be provided. However, you are welcome to sing without music. If you would like background music you must provide your own tape or CD player. If you have picture and resume you may bring it but this step is not required to audition.

Breaking into the music business is incredibly difficult -- even for the most talented of performers. The industry expects you to send a demo tape, and you can only pray that someone will actually listen to it. Not only is this an expensive venture – it seldom produces results. BNT offers you the opportunity to perform live for top record producers, managers, and music agents in Los Angeles. There is no better way.

Secondary Categories

Broadway: If you’re aspiring to a career on the Broadway stage, this category is for you. Perform a musical theater number for top Equity agents, managers and Broadway casting directors.

Songwriting: There’s more to the music industry than the performers who step up to the mike; the songwriters make them tick. Submit a tape or CD of an original song to be listened to by top music executives.

Latin Performance: Due to the increasing demand for Spanish speaking performers, we have added this category this year. Showcase your skills for the judges.

Jive Records, Smash Music, Poorehouse Music, Monopoly Music, Mental Music Productions, Hideaway Music, Reprise Music, Gran Motif Records, Epic Records, Broadway, Jesco Records, Rap Rock Records, Norwood Entertainment, Sand Dollar Entertainment Management , Vocal Talent Development, Scottie Haskell – Booker and Musical Director of Film and Television Soundtracks, Susan Slammer Music Director American Idol, Club Jammin Records,, Joanne A.
