Calling all Emerging artists.

The Pleasantville Music Festival is New York's Backyard Jam. So we're looking for bands from all over New York's Backyard and beyond. Each year, we reserve a few slots for up-and-coming talent. Bands and soloists. Artists that can help us party, and artists that can help us chill. If you're interested and want your name in consideration, now’s your time to shine your skills, your materials, your bio, and your music samples. So by the time submissions open, yours will be all set to press send.

Submission OPENS Soon.

Here's What You Need To HAVE READY:

1. Links to your music. A website with music or video pages so we can listen to you online. (No files, please.)

2. A write-up about your band. An EPK (Electronic Press Kit) or bio , including places you've played and tell us where you’re from!

3. A list of where and when you're playing locally in the upcoming months so we can catch you live.

4. Contact information, so we can reach you if we're interested. Of course, if you have all the above information on your website, that's ideal. Just let us know.

Check back on this site in January for official word when submissions are open. Better yet, subscribe to our mailing list and follow us on our socials below.

Now listen up: Submitting is the only way to get a chance to play the Festival. As volunteers, we do not take phone calls or private inquiries. That can actually work against you.
