Broadjam Announces Grand-Prize WinnerOf rehearsals.com Song Contest
“The Rideaways” Ride Away With High-DefinitionVideo Production Package Valued At More Than $75,000
MADISON, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Broadjam, one of the fastest-growing global communities of independent musicians and fans on the web, today announced the results of the contest they created in collaboration with rehearsals.com, CenterStaging’s online digital “gateway into the recording artist’s workshop,” which is powered by MLB Advanced Media. The Rideaways and their song “The Matter” won the Grand Prize which consists of a high-definition rehearsal and performance session at CenterStaging’s state-of-the-art facilities in Burbank, CA.
“Having the contest going in conjunction with Broadjam was great. We were exposed to some top-notch artists and we’re very happy with the winners,” said Tommy Nast, Executive Vice President/Business Development for rehearsals.com. “When the Rideaways come out here it won’t be just a traditional video shoot. We shoot up to 16 cameras in high definition and the audio is outstanding as well. When all is said and done their whole experience here is going to be captured including behind the scenes, rehearsals and doing what they do best getting out there and performing.”
“This was a very hard contest to judge because of the high quality of music that was submitted,” said Donny Sellon, Business Development Specialist at Broadjam. “We saw not only rock but hip-hop, country, singer-songwriter, just really killer music overall. The Rideaways are just a total package, a very well-put-together band with a great sound and it would not surprise me to hear them in major markets.”
Contest submissions to Broadjam were open to any genre or style of music.
