1) MP3 of your original song - not exceeding 5MB in size.
2) Document file with lyrics of your song

However! if you really wanna show us what you got?
But do not have an mp3 to submit?

Email me at chan.min@action.com.sg

Please provide:

I believe everyone should have a fair chance to audition.

audition

So we need to have our own songs? Or just find a song from any album?

 

[ChanMin]

Hey Rubelle, its gotta be an original song.

Just a rough idea will suffice for the mp3 track. Remember the song must be about either love, peace or ice cream!

thanks,

Min.


Good NEWS!
Due to excellent response, We are extending the audition to Friday 2359 hrs

I liked that We GANG band that did that song called KICKS
When they play again?

And who was the band that played before them?
I think Adam Tahir was drumming.

They're playing this/ No mention of Ben and Gerry - although hippy-ish enough for them. And it says "irresistible". Hope not too much tye-die is involved:

PEACE OFF - LOVE ON
Date/Time: Fri 11 Sep, 8pm
Venue: Crawlspace (behind Straits Records 766 North Bridge Road)
Tickets: $10 (incl of fresh Bandung drink. Limited edition of 5 litres)

"Enjoy a hype-free dose of the best original Indie in town with a great mix of four bands that are now emerging from the underground and quickly becoming crowd favourites with each gig they play. With their refreshing and melodic takes of classic rock n’ roll, alternative pop, bittersweet songwriting and punky bop, this is an irresistible line-up for all music fans. Featured acts include The Guilt, who are a local equivalent of a “Supergroup” and a brilliant new addition to the extended family of our national icons, Force Vomit; the critically-acclaimed British guitar-and-drums duo of Etc; the hotly-tipped and instantly catchy We GANG; plus the Daughtry-loving CloseApart, who once boasted Eunice Olsen in their line-up before she went on star in the TCS series, Red Thread. Forget about Electrico. The real sparks fly here!"
