A new Birmingham based company Submit A Demo, a free service for artists, bands, and songwriters of all genres, may soon make Unsolicited Demos a thing of the past.

Artists and bands eager to land a record deal are at the mercy of music executives who basically are too busy to screen the huge amount of demos they receive. Not to mention the legal issues that also makes it nearly impossible for record labels to accept these demos. With the help of Submit A Demo any major or independent record label that has agreed to use their free service will screen every demo they receive on their behalf. The company will find the talent and showcase the top artists on their site submitademo.com

Justin Oliver, Director of A&R at Playroom Records, Inc welcomes the idea saying;

“It’s a brilliant idea… We receive around 100 demos per month. It’s a painful process to screen every single demo. They are becoming the eyes and ears for scouting out great talent for our label.”

In addition to screening demos, the company is in the process of developing a network of A&R Buzz Spotters throughout the U.S. (teens and young adults who actively scout out new talent and keep the company up-to-date on the latest buzz in their own music market.)
