In an unprecedented move, I am currently accepting submissions for the next two volumes of Ball of Wax Audio Quarterly at the same time! Why, do you ask? I’ll tell you: Because Volume 36 (Spring 2014) will be the usual CD of assorted music from Seattle and beyond, which I can pretty much turn around in no time. This summer’s installment, however, will be much more involved and requires a longer lead time (details below). Hence two deadlines on the same day. Send in music for one or both, but do please send us your music!
Ball of Wax 36: No theme, just good sounds. Feel free to send whatever you’ve got cooking for our review for potential inclusion in the next volume. Easy peasy.
Ball of Wax 37: Songs and pictures about animals (for kids). This summer we will produce a kid-targeted (or at least kid-friendly) installment of BoW, with the theme of songs about animals. This is a joint book/CD project, funded by 4culture. Each song will have an accompanying illustration made by a different artist. We’re looking for musicians and visual artists for this one.
Submission guidelines here. Deadline for both is April 1st. I look forward to hearing your sounds.
