Band Auditions

PORTICO is accepting all auditions via video submissions. We're so excited about all that Jesus is doing in our church, and we're looking forward to seeing your videos!

How to Audition by Video

  • You will find two songs in your instrument folder. Please submit one video that includes both songs.

    Step 1: Prepare for Youtube Audition

    • Prepare for the audition using the ‘reference’ MP3’s and chord charts. Try to match your part from the song as close as possible.

    • For example, if you’re auditioning on piano for Way Maker, prepare for your audition using the MP3 titled ‘Way Maker-Piano Reference’

    Step 2: Record YouTube Audition

    • Record your video using the ‘audition’ MP3. Make sure that your instrument can be clearly heard over the MP3 in your recording.

    • For example, if you’re auditioning on drums for Lion & the Lamb, record your video using the MP3 titled “Lion & the Lamb - Audition Track”.
