When bands dream of making it to the top of their profession they often picture the adoring fans, the fame and the fortune and often overlook the hard work and dedication it may take to get them where they want to go. Whatever the price of fame they need to be prepared to pay it and if this means starting at the bottom and working their way up to getting recognised, this is what must be done.

Entering music competitions can be a great way for new and unsigned bands to make their foray into the music industry. The events give everyone who participates the chance to play their music to a wide audience both at home in the UK and even as far afield as other countries around the world.

Band competitions vary in size and stature from local to regional, national and even international gigs, some will just have one live show and others will offer a variety of live events culminating in a grand final to find the best band amongst the registrants.

Aside from the exposure these music competitions give to unsigned artists, there is also the experience factor. The more practice bands can get at performing live in front of a crowd then the better they will become. There is no substitute for a live audience and bands should take every opportunity they can to perform in this way.

They say it is not about the winning it's the taking part that counts and in terms of entering a band contest this may certainly be the case. Although the winner may walk away with a recording deal and new equipment, the runners up and other participants may take advantage of the increased exposure, the new fan base and the collaboration with other artists - all of which will help them on their quest to make it in the music business.
