We are getting some seriously inspiring answers on the band submission forms.

Here’s part of an answer, in response to the “Why First Time’s The Charm?” question: “We are old: 40+ plus range. People describe some of our identities as bi-queer, fat/a person of size, black, female, a parent, and other cool stuff not always highlighted in the scene. Mostly we like to make music and jokes and dance. We have ENERGY for days, and this showcase would give us the opportunity to do new things with and for new people.”

Band submissions are open now! Sign-up here! 

When completing this form and creating your band, remember that the makeup of your band is a microcosm of our scene! What does your band say about representation in our scene and city?

FTTC submissions open on February 25th and close on March 4th. While we take into account the order in which we receive submissions, slots are not granted on a rolling basis. In the event that more bands sign up than there is room for, we will use these submissions to choose bands that best fulfill the spirit of this event. Please sign up any time within the next week!
