Demopitches | Friday
Ready… set? PITCH!
Are you ready to kickstart your artistic career? Or looking for feedback on a current project to take it to the next level? Then be sure to step by and pitch your demo to one of the ADE Demopitch music professionals, including A&Rs, label managers and recording artists.
Due to the limited capacity of 10 professionals in total, pre-registration is required for this speeddate format. To claim a spot for this session, be sure to sign up at our INFO & SIGN-UP desk, located at Het Groene Paleis.
Sign-up is available the moment that the ADE Lab doors open on the morning of this event (10AM). Be sure to come early and claim your timeslot with your preferred professional, because we follow a first come first serve policy and full = full sign-up list.
A&Rs and Music Professionals are updated on this page in the following weeks.
