Showcases are where the real action takes place. Here you get a chance to review all the artists up for financing to decide which artist you want to support. Once decided, you can support your artist by casting your vote for them. The artist with the most votes in the Showcase will be guaranteed a minimum of £15,000 to record and release an album. However all artists that receive sufficient indications of finance from you will also be able to raise over £15,000 to record and release an album. Once you have cast your vote you will be asked whether you would finance them if they receive enough support, if they secure this support then they will also move through to the financing stage. It is possible that all 20 bands in the Showcase could be financed, after all they have been judged as the best 20 of 1,000 bands to get to this stage so they must be pretty good!
