ARE YOU A TALENTED MUSICIAN, ARTIST OR BAND MEMBER?
ARE YOU LONDON BASED OR FROM LONDON?
DO YOU WANT TO FEATURE IN THE NEXT ISSUE OF LF MAGAZINE?
If the above applies then Liberation Frequency want to hear from YOU!
We want to support the cream of London's unsigned and independent talent, we want to give you or your band the exposure you deserve! The London independent music scene is the finest in the country and we intend to prove it, WITH YOUR HELP!
Email us here with a summary of who you are and what you are all about, include a link through to your myspace (or website) OR send us one track from yourself or your band.
All genres are considered, there is no age limit, we just ask that you are from or are based in London and don't currently have an album deal with a major record label (singles and EP deals and deals in other countries, or expired deals don't count).
If you want to recommend a friend's band then that is fine also. The Deadline is July 24th.
Also we are looking for talented sales people to work on the next issue of LF Magazine, if you are interested then contact us here
