SUBMITTING MUSIC

Deep Elm Records BELIEVES in the power of music to inspire, excite, comfort and console. We always have and we always will. We all need what music gives us. Think about the records you love so dearly...the songs that make you smile and the songs that make you cry. Now imagine they never existed. There needs to be a label that continues to BELIEVE...even when the music industry is in decline and facing its most difficult challenges. That label is Deep Elm...and we will continue to release the best independent recordings available today. Deep Elm remains strong, alive and committed to both its bands and fans worldwide. We are signing bands.

Deep Elm reviews ALL music we receive. You do not need permission to send us your music...we accept unsolicited submissions from all bands on a worldwide basis. Read the submission procedure below CAREFULLY. If you do not follow the directions below, your submission will be discarded. DO NOT email sound files or send us links to listen to your music.

Although you are welcome to submit a minimum of three (3) songs, we are most interested in receiving completed full-length albums (at least 10 songs) that are available for immediate worldwide release. Send a CD with the BAND NAME, PHONE and E-MAIL directly written on the face of the CD. If the CD has artwork on it, write the information on a label, white sticker or piece of making tape and affix it to the face of the CD. Send your CD in a jewel case or with a piece of cardboard to protect it from breaking. Forget the fancy folders, bios, reviews and photos...we don't need it. It's only the music that matters. Send your CD by Regular Mail ONLY (absolutley no Express Mail, Fedex, DHL, UPS) to: Deep Elm Records - Music Submission, 210 N. Church Street #2502, Charlotte, NC 28202-2385 USA.

If we are interested in your music, WE will be in contact with you. PLEASE do not call, e-mail or contact us. Assume we received your package if it has not been returned to you in the mail, as we cannot track unsolicited packages. Sorry, packages cannot be returned and we do not comment on music that we pass on.
