Artists are free to enter the Talent Search in as many cities as they like. They will, however, only be eligible to perform in first final for which they are selected. Demos will not be returned. No amplifiers may be used. Electric instruments may be used, but they must only be amplified by Direct Input.
Effects pedals are acceptable.
Stage Manager has ultimate discretion with regards to instrumentation. Judging Panel of judges will be selected by the local promoter and Lilith Fair Performances will be judged on originality, musical ability and instrumentation, and vocal performance. This is not a songwriting competition. The grand prize includes the opening performance at the local presentation of Lilith Fair. If there is more than one Lilith Fair performance scheduled in a particular city, two grand prizes may be awarded.
