Emergenza is "the world's largest festival for unsigned bands, with concerts in more than 150 cities around the world."[1] It features "up and coming bands from across the globe."[2]

There are elimination rounds in different countries throughout the year, whereby the bands that advance are selected by the audiences that hear them. Professional judges choose the winners at regional and final concerts.[1]

History

The first Emergenza Festival emerged in 1992, when a group of musician friends staged the first event in Rome, Italy, before an audience of 245. Five months later, the attendance had grown to three thousand, and in that year the festival's first compilation album was made. From 1993 to 2003 Emergenza recorded 54 such albums, both live and in studio. In 1995 the Emergenza logo was created.

On January 7, 1996, the Gibus Club in Paris hosted the first Emergenza concert outside Italy. One hundred thirteen bands signed up. The following year 2,500 people attended the first Emergenza European Final at the London Astoria in the United Kingdom.

In 2001, the festival crossed the Atlantic Ocean to Montreal, and in 2002 five cities hosted Emergenza; by 2003 more than 700 bands were playing 190 engagements in the first U.S. season. The following year, 2,876 musicians took part in the United States, and some sixteen thousand played for audiences in Europe and Canada. In 2005, seventy North American cities took part.

The Emergenza Festival spread to both Japan and Australia in 2006, with shows in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Tokyo. Later, Perth in Western Australia and Brisbane were included in Australia's list. From 2008 through 2010, The Czech Republic, Slovenia, Russia and New Zealand began participating.

SPECIAL GUESTS At the great number of shows that Emergenza promotes every year, there are good occasions for Best-Of-Emergenza bands to play in front of a lot of people in foreign cities without drawing own audience. In most countries theses Special Guest apperiances, that don´t take part in the voting process, are held regularly. In Germany in 2011 these bands benefited from it:

THE UNKINDNESS OF RAVENS (London) LEXXI (Glasgow) 

BLACKOUT PROBLEMS (München)  
THE TROSS (Stuttgart)  
MEN SHOULD BROTHERS BE (Leipzig)  
DAZY NERDS (Bad Windsheim)  
THE UNKINDNESS OF RAVENS (London)  
NOVOCHILD (Berlin)  
DAZY NERDS (Bad Windsheim)  
NO BETTER QUESTION (Stuttgart)  
WASTE (Bayreuth)  
LEO HÖRT RAUSCHEN. (Dresden)  
MAGIC VERMIN (München)  
MYSTICAL SOUL (Paris)  
BARULHEIROS (Witten)  
ALTEDO (Nürnberg) 
IMAGO (Berlin)  
HARTHOF (Berlin)  
EMMECOSTA (Göteborg, SWE)

SUPPORT SHOWS Due to their close relationship with clubs, local promoters and booking agencies, Emergenza managers often get asked to recommend artists, when it comes to local support slots for international touring artists. Examples are NERVOUNS NELLIE supporting THE (INTERNATIONAL NOISE CONSPIRACY, DIE LETZTEN supporting SEPULTURA, BRIAN SCHRAM BAND supporting KID ROCK, IDE supporting DEF LEPPARD, GLORIA CYCLES supporting INXS and SUPERGRASS, KIM NIXON supporting ANNA CALVI and LAMENT from Leipzig even toured with PHILLIP BOA in 2009 following Emergenza´s recommendation.
