Showcase Application
NACA (National Association for Campus Activities) chooses several acts to showcase for college students at each of their conferences. Showcasing is the easiest way for student programmers to see an act perform and booking is often done on site after the showcase.

You must get approval to be considered for the NUDE roster before filling out the showcase application below. To ask questions about how and why NUDE applies their artists for showcases, or to submit your band for consideration, click
here and email us a link to your video and/or music.

If you do not have a Sonicbids EPK, please click here to set one up before proceeding with this application. It will be required for all showcase submissions. Your EPK should incude a bio, photos, your basic tech requirements, set list, current tour dates, and a video if you have one. We can also use video from a site other than Sonicbids for this application. Don't worry about the current look of your EPK, NUDE will consult with you about needed improvements at a later time.

Application fee is $125 per regional conference and $250 for the national conference. This is an application fee only and does not guarantee you will be chosen by NACA.

After clicking submit, you will be forwarded to a confirmation page where you can pay your submission fee. If you make a mistake on the form below and aren't able to clear it, please click the reset button at the bottom to clear the form and start again.
