So...how do you enter?

Write an original song and record it. Check out our go to guide in the features section for all the info you may need.

Sign up as an artist on this website and upload your track, or tracks. We will only be selecting one track to be recorded, but you are welcome to upload up to three if you so wish.

Get all your friends to register on triple j Unearthed and rate and review your tracks. We need to know that your school supports you too!

If you are already registered as an artist, you just need to check the 'Unearthed High' checkbox under competitions in your artist profile. This is a new feature so you won’t have had the option when you originally signed up.

This competition closes at Midnight AEST Monday 22th July 2013.
