Bands, artists and DJs. Do you wanna play Secret Valley Fest?
Applications are now open, until 15th January.
Slots will be paid as much as we can afford, rates tbc :)
What we’re looking for:
-
Genre is open format. You’ll be playing to a diverse crowd, and we’ll be looking at creating a flow throughout the day based on who applies. Last year we had bands, artists and DJs covering a whole spectrum spanning acoustic folk-pop, post-punk, synth pop, reggae, disco, funk ’n’ soul, silly techno, old school house, afrobeats, electronica, hip-hop, deep house, dub and beyond. Anything goes!
-
We’re on the look out for original music, less interested in cover bands
-
We're particularly interested in platforming artists that receive less of a spotlight than they should. That includes people from the Global Majority, women, trans+ and gender non-conforming folks, queer folks, and local / Welsh artists.
-
You don’t need to be huge on social media - it’s more about the music. But we’d like to be able to promote each other, so you will need some photos, videos, and online presence of some kind
​
Any questions: secretvalleyfest@gmail.com
Please bear in mind, last year we had 200 applicants. I expect even more this year. Please be patient with me! We’re a 1.5 day festival with 1 stage, so competition for slots will be tight. And I’ll only be able to respond to those that are successful in making the line-up. And I’ll say it again. The only way in is via the application form.
Excited to see what you send me!
