The Wide Days music convention has opened applications to perform at this year’s incarnation of the music networking and promotion event, scheduled to take place in Edinburgh on April 22-23.

Now in its sixth year, Wide Days is currently Scotland’s only music-specific business event. The showcase element has seen many upcoming acts perform to an audience of industry representatives as well as regular punters, and in 2015 saw Scottish Album of the Year Award winner Kathryn Joseph perform alongside Mercury Music Prize-nominee, C Duncan.

Full entry conditions for Scottish-based applicants are at the link below. Artisis in return receive traveling expenses and rider plus entry to the two-day programme of conference activities.

The entry deadline is 5pm on Friday 29th January.
