Demo Listening & Pitch Sessions offer a unique opportunity for selected musicians to get direct feedback from seasoned music professionals, those who listen to demos as part of their job.

This year, we can accept digital submissions for these sessions. You must send a direct link to your hosted track (ie, Bandcamp, SoundCloud, etc.); DO NOT email attached MP3s! Links for Demo Listening Sessions can go to demolistening@sxsw.com. Physical CDs will also be accepted at the door.

You must be present to have your music in the running to be heard!
