88.5FM The SoCal Sound is looking for Southern California’s hidden gem artist, and that could be you!

The public radio station, a service of CSUN and Saddleback College, is holding a competition to discover young and emerging artists — for a chance to be featured on air! Whether you’re a singer-songwriter, a band or solo artist, the SoCal Sound is ready to hear from you.

To enter, artists must submit a demo no later than Monday, April 8 by 11:59 p.m. Each participant’s submission will be featured on the station’s Instagram, and listeners will weigh in via “March Madness”-style bracket voting on Instagram stories.

This competition offers a platform for young artists to gain exposure and recognition, and the winner will be featured as The SoCal Sound’s local artist spotlight.

Are you SoCal’s next big sound? Tune in to find out!
