Is there any way to be represented by CMEAS other than through Sonicbids and / or this specific event?
Yes, several. As well as applying for a specific event you can also apply directly to be a member of our artist roster. Also, because we encourage musical exchanges, we will work with quality acts outside the remit of a particular event if they have something to offer us in return (good ‘ole barter system). If you have a steady gig base, we can help match you with an act or acts that also have a good gig base and also want to play in other locations. They may, for example, be in another country or another part of your country. What we don’t do is work with acts that want us to do everything for them and nothing in return (“we’re really good, book us in England!”) – we believe that attitude to be contrary to our philosophy of mutual musical collaboration, and is certainly shortsighted and rather conceited.
