Re: [Callers] Catapult 2017 looking for callers

2016-12-14 Thread Rob Harper via Callers
I'm a little biased, so I'll let others chime in on their experience. If you 
want to reach out to specific folks you know, the list of callers is available 
on the website. 

http://catapultshowcase.com/history.html

You'll also find details on what we're looking for, but in summary we want 
callers (and bands) ready to call for festivals but haven't broken on to the 
scene yet. 

If you or anyone you know fits the bill, I suggest giving Catapult a shot. 
(Again, I'm a little biased.)

In terms of travel, it's held in Atlanta but it's a national festival drawing 
callers, musicians, dancers and organizers from across the country. (37 states 
and New Zealand so far.) Each caller or musician selected gets a travel 
allowance that will get them to Atlanta and back.

Hope that answers some of your questions.

Happy holidays all!

ciao,
rah

How many of you out there have participated in this?  What did you think 
of it?  I'm curious, but not sure whether I'm what they're looking for, 
or vice versa.  And it's a long way to travel for a short gig.
