In addition to the informative panels and lectures, EAT’M gives artists an opportunity to submit their demo to earn a chance to perform during the conference. Hundreds of bands, including Slipknot and Papa Roach, have benefitted from playing EAT’M showcases.

Artists in all categories of music are encouraged to submit a CD or cassette prior to the January 15, 2002 “absolute final” deadline. All performers selected will receive full, complimentary registrations.

Information on registration for the conference or submitting a demo can be found at www.eat-m.com.

EAT’M has emerged as the instruction manual for musicians wanting to break into the limelight. Part of the three day conference events are forums on songwriting, publishing, record contracts, artist management, concert promotion, agency representation, marketing, digital delivery, and promotion.
