There is no fee to audition and if you are selected, we will pay basic travel and lodging expenses. If we choose to include your performance in a television program or a video that we distribute, you will get the attendant publicity, which we hope will advance the cause of Doo Wop and perhaps of your career, and if we use that performance for any commercial purpose you will receive a talent fee. All eligible audition videos submitted will be reviewed by one or more judges who are knowledgeable about Doo Wop music, based on the overall quality of your vocal performance, faithfulness to the Doo Wop tradition, and choreography and costume. We allow only one audition per group and no person may be a part of more than one group submitting an audition tape. Any additional audition videos will be void.Guidelines for Submitting an Audition Video:
