PLAY:stl Music Festival & Conference Returns for Third Spectacular Year!
 
In 2007, the PLAY:stl Music Festival & Conference was born in the heart of the country: St. Louis, Mo. The first year saw 90 bands on seven stages over two days; year two featured 99 bands over three days. Add the fest's industry panels on top of the showcases and the festival really delivered a big bang for a little buck.
 
The festival attracts artists and attendees from across the nation...even across the ocean, in some instances. PLAY:stl provides an excellent opportunity for bands to gain valuable exposure, network and learn.
 
Sponsors of the event are privy to a captive, passionate and creative audience. These are musicians, music lovers and industry folk. They spend their dollars on music and associated businesses, including record labels, recording studios, CD replication, beer/alcohol, energy drinks, hospitality/lodging, tattoos, music magazines, social networking...even education.
 
Artist submissions are open through July 31 via Sonicbids (www.sonicbids.com/playstl). Call Jim at 314-630-6404 for more details on sponsorship or getting involved with the festival.
