EMERGENZA US Entertainment
Soliciting Bands and Musical Acts In Pay For play Nationwide Scam

Recreation & Entertainment

Emergenza US Entertainment is a pseudo-booking agency based out of New York that solicits bands and musical acts to pay a $70.00 fee to basically buy space to perform at various venues for "exposure". Once the company has enough victims, it uses the money received to pay various venues to use their stage facilities for a "battle of the bands" contest.

In addition, the company gets the bands to sell tickets to the events leading them to believe by doing so, it will improve their chances of getting heard by top industry leaders such as SONY MUSIC and other major record labels. The company also uses "endorsements" from musical companies like Ernie Ball for "free guitar strings" and musical equipment.

The bands are promised much, and when the shows go on, the "voting" is set up in such a way to where the band that generates the most money via ticket sales is put into some unclear ranking system, and as such, has very little to do with whether the acts have any talent. If you have $70.00 and can carry an instrument on stage, you're in.

Bands and artists who participate in this "pay for play" rip-off only demean the profession and devalue musicians who are out there trying to get paying gigs and seriously work their careers.

Every concerned musician who cares about their profession is advised to spread the word about this event scam organization who are profitting off the backs of the naive using "hope of fame and exposure" as the proverbial carrot on a stick.
