Emerging Bands and Artists living in Deliland (i.e. the 12 local US scenes we cover),

Like ever year, The Deli is going to give you the opportunity to play at one of its CMJ Music Marathon parties.

This time we have booked a bunch of shows in the Lower East Side and Brooklyn, and as usual we'll have stages for all major musical genres (see last year's schedule here). See flyer above for the list of venues booked this year.

We are looking to book 5 or more artists for these shows - last year we ended up booking more than 10 from the submissions!!!

To be considered, all you need to do is to apply here - good luck!

Submission deadline: August 30, 2012.

Also! For extra exposure, from now on every Deli page will also have a direct link to the local live listings on the main navigation bar!

Rocking folks,

The Deli for the second year will be in Austin during the unmentionable festival (we probably could mention it in this context, but at this point we really don't want to...) with a printed magazine!

The issue will be mostly focused on the best unofficial shows and The Deli's favorite emerging artists in the 11 scenes we cover.

We are making it available online the week before the actual festival in pdf, READ IT (or download it) HERE!

This year The Deli is in Austin during the unmentionable festival with a 2 stage party on Thursday March 15 (that's tonight!) at the Gypsy Lounge in the East Side!

Awesome dancey bands on the outdoors stage will tempt the audience to some wild booty shakin' action, while indoors fantastic rock and alt folk acts will alternatively punch you and sooth your soul. Check this lineup out and (if you are going to be in Austin) do not miss! -

This is a free event (no badge required) but please RSVP here to get priority access.
