LIFE CHURCH Worship Team Application

Musician & Vocal Application

For LIFE CHURCH Worship
Thank you for your interest in joining what God is doing at LIFE CHURCH.

We have a high priority on worship and also have high standards for our musicians & vocalists. We are looking for strong musicians and vocalists who fit with these 3 key components.

1 - Love the LORD with their whole heart. Have the heart of a worshipper and are willing to be a servant of the LORD to the house

2 - Steward their gifting well. While we don’t expect everyone on our teams to be a professional musician, we do expect everyone to be proficient at their gifting while also being comitted to personal growth in their abilities.

3 - Fit the LIFE CHURCH house sound. Our Worship team has a unique sound that reflects our heart and culture. We're looking for those who naturally align with our sound and style. (This can mean vocal tones and personal playing style)

We have a multiple-step process for LIFE CHURCH Worship auditions. This requires completing an online application and submitting 2 video recorded demos If selected, the next round of the application process is an interview with our Worship Council and a live audition.

Please note this is a volunteer position.

What is the best time to contact you at the phone number above?
When we get back to you about your application and recordings (see details below), how would you like for us to? We ask this because if we don’t feel like you’re quite ready to join the team, this conversation can be more difficult. We want to be sensitive to the way you’d prefer to receive the information (please check one). If you do prefer for us to tell you in person, it may take longer before you’re notified.

Song Submission Directions:

Record a video of you playing / singing / etc. Simple and basic in front of a computer/phone camera is great. Please do not add filters to your demo or add effects to alter the raw quality. We'd like all demos to be consistent. Thank you!

You can have the recording playing QUIETLY in the background if that helps you. Make sure you play strong and sing out - we need to hear YOU. Upload your demo to Youtube and paste your link in the application. Please set your video to unlisted in the privacy settings. Your application will not be considered without this link attached.

• If you need a chord chart please email worship@lifechurchsalem.com and let us know the song and key you need.

• Vocalists - You may change the key of a song if needed. Again, if you need a chord chart, please email us.
