Must be currently enrolled at an accreditted public California College University and send email from schol email with biography information to conchertosubmissions@gmail.com.

Art, Beauty, Minority, and Trade schools, to me, are considered public colleges, if they are accreditted and you have a school email address. 

You should have music that is honest, and availiable to sell via bandcamp, itunes, or personal website,etc.
Having your songs on Soundcloud and Youtube with videos of you playing are great as well. 

The Standards of entertainment now, are astronomical and very unfair to the least well off (most) musicians economically.

Your music should be honest, have something to say, and have the production quality to do that. 

I listen to Billie Holiday and Muddy Waters and don't care if I can't hear the bass that much, I love the content.

Today, we demand high levels of production for things that contain very little content and are viewed passiveley. 

On Concherto, its understood you don't have a million dollar studio and the Swiss Pop Mafia writing your songs. 

That is the point!

 I want something new, grassroots, raw,  meaningful, and honest. 

You're songs are your songs, but I made Concherto to help public college students of all creeds, races, nationalities, and sexual orientations, so be respectful.

We're adults and in college, we should know better. 

I love music and I can feel love in trap, death metal, rock, country, blues, classical, hindustani, etc. 

NO NAZIS

Your picture will with a link to your bandcamp or website of your choosing will be displayed on the Concherto Website as well as shared on Social Media Accounts, Added to the Spotify Showcase Playlist, and more in-depth interview for the magazine. 

It also means that you are part of something that could help redirect the immense wealth and influence of the entertainment machine to help yourself pay for school.

I hope that you stay involved with and support Conch and help other student artists you think are dope succeed, even if they aren't showcased but are on the WordPress blog.
