CALLING ALL MUSICIANS!

​

We Want To Support You During Covid-19

We've been working hard behind the scenes to support Canadian musicians like you!

 

We'd like to give you a platform to perform your music, talk about your history, show a video, or speak on a topic that you'd like to share with music fans or other musicians. All at NO COST to you!

​

As such, we are proud to announce The 2020 Canadian Virtual Music Expo! 

Happening Saturday, August 15th, from 11:00am - 2:00pm EST. 

It's our annual Music Expo that you've come to love, just online! Presented by GeneralMayhem.ca.

 

All new with cool features, interactive with musicians, new releases, networking options and much more!

​

We can offer you two complimentary options and here’s what we need from you for each one:

​

  1. A “Sessions” Virtual Room

 

In this room you can speak with attendees and other musicians who come to your room by video.  You can perform your music, talk about yourself, interact with people who come to your room and much more.

 

For this option we would need from you ALL of the following (any incomplete submissions will not be processed):

 

  • For you to first visit www.MusicExpo.ca, click on the 2020 Canadian Virtual Music Expo link on the left, select "Musician Registration" (no cost) and create a profile

  • Thereafter, you would need to send us an email to info@generalmayhem.ca with ALL of the following information (any incomplete submissions will not be processed):

    • Your name

    • Preferred email address for us to communicate with you

    • Your phone number (cell preferable)

    • Something about yourself/your band

    • Links to any social media that you have (Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter, Instagram)

    • Links to any website you have (optional)

    • What your session would be called (40 character limit)

    • A description of the session – perhaps talk about some of your music, background, etc.

    • Your picture (could be your band logo or more)

    • What time you’d like to be on – you can be on as little or as much as you want through the event (runs from 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. EST – that’s Toronto time)

​2. A Virtual Booth in the “Expo” area

 

In this room you have two options. The sooner you send us the required information noted below the earlier we can promote you.

 

A.     JUST LEAVE A VIDEO FOR ATTENDEES

 

For this option, you can just leave a video of your music or a promo at your “Booth” and nothing more – you don’t even have to be at the event during the day. If you choose this option you MUST have a video available on YouTube, vimeo, or Wistia, and we would need all of the following (anything missing will not be processed):

​

  •  

    • For you to first visit www.MusicExpo.ca, click on the 2020 Canadian Virtual Music Expo link on the left, register for a Musician ticket (no cost) and create a profile

    • Thereafter, you would need to send us an email to info@generalmayhem.ca with ALL of the following information (any incomplete submissions will not be processed):

    •  

      • Your name

      • Preferred email address for us to communicate with you

      • Your phone number (cell preferable)

      • Something about yourself/your band

      • Links to any social media that you have (Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter, Instagram)

      • Links to any website you have (optional)

      • An About section - something more about you, your band, etc.

      • A description of any discounts on merch or anything else that you’re selling – e.g. 10% discount for all 2020 Canadian Virtual Music Expo attendees by using code #BANDNAME

      • The link to your YouTube, vimeo, or Wistia video (this is mandatory) – only one video allowed and this can’t be linked to a YouTube, vimeo, or Wistia channel

      • Your twitter account (if you have one)

      • A link to your website (optional)

      • Your logo (mandatory) – could be a picture of your band, you, etc.

      • A background image – could be the same as Your logo above

    • With this option, you can also chat by text box with attendees to your booth

B.     CHAT WITH VISITORS TO YOUR BOOTH LIVE BY VIDEO

  •  

    • For this option, we need all of the items noted in A. above except for the YouTube video.

    • A laptop/notebook computer is recommended for this option, not a phone, for better quality and better site navigation with visitors to your booth

    • In this option, you would be expected to be at your “booth” for the entire event so people can visit your booth and chat with you live during the show’s hours (from 11 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. EST – that’s Toronto time)

    • With this option, visitors to your booth/attendees can/will also chat with you through a chat box when you can’t be visible on video chat

    • For a video of what your booth can look like to attendees click HERE.
