Songwriters and performers invited to submit Eurovision 2015 entry

On the BBC Eurovision blog, executive producer Guy Freeman wrote about selecting next year's song for the competition, inviting songwriters and performers to submit songs for consideration. 

We’re keen to provide as many routes into the selection process as possible, whilst remaining realistic about the proven amount of experience required by anyone wishing to put themselves forward. As we did last year, we will continue to talk to record labels and organisations who work with songwriters and artists every day – such as BBC Introducing – to suggest or create viable entries.

In addition, we will happily consider entries submitted formally; please click the email link below for details. The most important point to bear in mind is that entries must be in the form of a video recording of an appropriate artist or group performing the song. The video doesn’t have to be professionally shot and the audio production can be a demo – but it must be performed by the artist who you believe could perform it in Vienna, if it was selected. We are unable to accept songs submitted without an artist or artists applying without a song.

The closing date for submissions is 5pm on Friday 7 November
