Artists Apply Now To Perform!
The Los Angeles Music Network’s “LAMN Jam” heads for the Big Green Apple next month. Launched three years ago in Los Angeles (where performances continue), LAMN Jams go beyond traditional showcases by featuring artists performing original songs, followed by instant professional critiques from a panel of industry experts. This year, artists will perform for $20,000 in prizes.
Artists will perform original material at Manhattan LAMN Jams, which begin March 18 and take place on the third Tuesday of every month from 7:00 – 9:00 p.m. at A&M Roadhouse located at 6 Murray Street (Church & Broadway) in the heart of downtown New York City. LAMN Jam performances are open to the public and admission is free.
Top performances are awarded each month by our panel of industry experts, and the top 5 artists will compete for the Grand Prize package at our Manhattan LAMN Jam Slam / Holiday Party!
LAMN Jam’s emphasize creativity and originality, featuring music written by the artists themselves (no covers!). Singers, songwriters and artists, don’t miss out. To be considered for all showcases, apply now click here.
2006 LAMN Jam Champ Hits Big Time
“We will continue to discover great songs as well as great artists, like Tim Fagan, winner of LAMN Jam 2006,” says LAMN Jam founder Tess Taylor, President of both the Los Angeles Music Network (LAMN) and the National Association of Record Industry Professionals (NARIP).
After winning the 2006 LAMN Jam, champion Tim Fagan was invited to tour with the Goo Goo Dolls and won the John Mayer Songwriting Contest last year, co-writing with the multi-platinum songwriter and recording artist. Fagan is currently on tour with Billboard Top 20 artist Colbie Caillat.
