Summary
Camplified Summer Camp Concert Tour 2014 will select at least two Sonicbids artists or bands, who will receive a $50 travel stipend per day on tour, and meals will be provided.
The Opportunity
Camplified brings concert tours featuring up-and-coming touring acts from major and recognizable indie record labels, playing to 30,000+ influential teens and tweens at 45+ summer camps across America.
This is a great opportunity for artists to showcase in front of America's youth, and international college age staff, the most fanatic tastemakers and spenders.
Each camp audience ranges from 300-500 per tour stop. Sponsors of the tour work with Camplified to integrate artists into their music based programs. Past sponsors have been Gibson Guitars, Roland, You Rock Guitar, VitaCoco, Nestle's Juicy Juice, Scholastic, YuGiOh Trading Cards, Cartoon Network, High Sierra BackPacks, Little Brown Books, Penguin Book Publishing, and St. Martins.
The Band
Artists of all genres are encouraged to apply. International artists are also encouraged to apply.
Some bands that have played Camplified include: Alabama Capital, Audio Revival, The New Velvet, Cover Drive from Barbados, Goodbye Friday, Oaklynn, The All Ways, Hey Guy, and former Cirque du Soleil singer Ali Isabella.
The Gig
Each artist is given a 25 minute set, followed by a meet and greet after the concert. Backline will be provided as well as full sound and production crew. Each artist will get a thorough sound check prior to each show. The tour starts July 1st and ends August 10th.
Locations/Dates Include: Camps located in Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Maryland, Virginia, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, Michigan, Wisconsin.
Selected artists will receive a $50 stipend for gas and expenses per tour date. One to two meals will be provided at all camp dates.
Selected artists will be featured in a section on the Camplified website with a link to the band's website. Selected artists will also receive a feature on the Camplified blog site, including an interview Q&A with the band.
Terms And Conditions
- The tour will consist of up to 3
performances for each artist, with gigs taking place during either afternoon or
early evening hours at camp. - Artists will be expected to tweet, FB
post, and instagram pictures throughout each day on tour. - Please keep in mind that if you are
selected, you will be performing for tweens and/or teens. We therefore require
that you have absolutely no explicit lyrics and your music is appropriate for
this age. - Your attire can and should be trendy,
but your t-shirts, hats, pants, etc., cannot explicitly suggest a negative
message to this audience. - Artists are required to participate
in autograph signings and other meet and greet events at each tour stop. Since
the tour stops typically last up to a full day, artists are expected to
participate in the activities with campers provided by the sponsors. Hanging
with the kids is a big plus, as it generates future communication with your
band and the kids. - Summer camps want Camplified because we provide safe, fun, "star-power" entertainment for their kids in
an innovative manner. Sponsors want Camplified because the on-site experience
helps top brands connect with teens/tweens in a way that goes above and beyond
traditional methods. The labels want Camplified because its helps them break
new acts with a lot of buzz by providing a one-of-a-kind marketing vehicle. And
now Camplified is opening up that opportunity to the indie world.
