We get tons of acts looking to get included in on the fun… If you are a musician… or in a band… the section below is for you!

We typically get hundreds of submissions yearly… making the competition tough! Lots of bands… only a few available slots. Bands always ask us…. ‘What is the criteria we use to solicit our entertainment? Note: These are only generalities.

—————————————

1st – We need to find artists that appeal to the demographics that attend the various festivals we produce. We look at the type of music you play… and decide if it is a good fit? If so, we’re on to the next step.

2nd – Is your band a draw? That means… do you have a following? If so… great! Not the end of the world if you don’t… lots of bands claim they do and don’t … so don’t worry.

3rd – Do you have name recognition? That is… have we heard of you? Will you draw attention, fans, press, etc.? If so… great? If not, again, no big deal… lets figure out how to get you a little recognition.

4th – Can we afford you? This is where we do some math… not to bore you… but we basically need to figure out if your group will actually make sense (and money)? If so… we are almost there.

5th – It’s time to make an offer… this is where we call you. Sound Good… ?

Things that can help you!

A) Build your mailing (or email) list. The size of your list can really help. If you will help us promote the event… we would appreciate it.. and it may just land you a spot.

B) Play gigs in the immediate area where the event takes place. This may seem tough… but, if you can pull it off… you have a better chance to get chosen for our festivals.

C) Play a great set! Make sure you have designed a great :75 – :90 minutes of rock-solid entertainment. We need to keep our crowds happy… and we rely on our talent to make this happen.

D) Put us on your mailing list. This informs us of how often you play, where you play, and what nights of the week you typically play.

We hope you will check this page often… we will continue to put up additional resources and information.

Thanks a bunch – Sincerely, StarEvents.

PS – Oh – by the way – we have a contest that will launch this month. It will allow you and your fans to pick a group to be featured at one of our events. That’s right… your band could win a “featured” slot to perform at one of our Premiere Festivals. The link and contest rules will be put right here ***

Don’t want to miss the launch? I can’t blame you. Check back soon. Launches on or before Super Bowl Sunday. Super!

The list below consists of a few of the groups we have recently worked with at one of our events. It is almost impossible to include them all… but this will give you an idea of some of the incredible choices we can provide for your event.

If you are looking to secure great talent for your next events… check out the Chicago Entertainment Agency. We’d love to help you.
