I Want To Open For Mother Mother at the Commodore Contest

Calling all unsigned Vancouver artists! We are looking for a support act for our All Ages Matinee performance on December 30 at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver, so we thought why not open up our search to all of the fabulous local Vancouver talent and give one lucky act the opportunity to share the stage with us at this historic venue? Ryan talks more about it in the above video.

If you wish to submit your act for consideration as support for this performance, do so at iwanttoopenformothermother@gmail.com starting December 5 at 9:00am PT until December 9 at 9:00pm PT.

What we want to see:
1) Link(s) to your 5 best songs (or link to a music player streaming your 5 best songs) - please don't send music files
2) Link to your website(s)
3) Your tour/performance history
4) Your stage set up (a clear description or stage plot is acceptable)

And if you have any of the below, feel free to send them as well (not mandatory though):
1) Links to any performance footage (doesn't have to be pro quality, but quality enough so we get a good idea of what you look/sound like on stage) - please don't send video files
2) Any media recognition or accomplishments you wish to share

Now the rules:
1) Acts have to be from the Greater Vancouver area
2) Acts cannot be signed to a record label
3) All Ages Welcome!
4) Please only submit your act once. Upon submitting to the above e-mail address, you will receive a confirmation e-mail indicating it has been received (if you can't find the e-mail, please check your spam/junk folder before trying again). If you spam us, your act will be disqualified.

And remember, the contest starts December 5 at 9:00am PT, so we will not be reviewing any submissions sent prior to that date and time. The contest closes December 9 at 9:00pm PT, after which we will be reviewing the submissions personally and will pick a winner which will be announced on this website on December 15.

Best of luck to all of the contestants!

GOOD FOR GRAPES WAS AWESOME

[weeboypretty]

Big thanks Ryan Guldemond and Mother Mother for this opportunity, things like this don't fall out of the sky very often, especially when they come from the heart. Our little gang here at Wee Boy Pretty headquarters really melt at the thought of offering you our services, and we hope that you hear something in our music that draws you in. Thanks again, just for the idea. Good luck to all. Sandor

What an awesome idea. I wish more known bands would do stuff like this.

If I wasn't on holiday in another province on that day we would totally submit to this!

[randomQueen5000]

There's a reason I love you guys. Now if only I lived in Vancouver, wrote songs, and had a band. All things I desperately want to do- just don't yet.

[bethmthompson]

You're amazing <3

[gargantua4]

Behind Sapphire, hands down.

[MalcolmMoonlight]

I second The Gay Nineties. They'd be perfect.
