Black Mountain Productions selects GCMF as Beneficiary for Indie Music Assault Competition

 

The Guitar Center Music Foundation has been chosen as the beneficiary for the annual “Indie Music Assault” contest and showcase presented by Black Mountain Productions and Skinnie Magazine.

 

The contest is now accepting entries from all unsigned independent rock bands from across the nation for the chance to play at Paramount Studios, the place of the MTV Video Music Awards, on May 9, 2009. It’s open to all different genres ranging from pop rock to heavy metal and only requires a $35 fee to enter. 

 

Fans will be able to vote for their favorite bands via a widget that can be placed on either the band’s Myspace or Facebook page. After a selection process, Indie Music Assault gives 10 chosen bands a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity as they perform their music for celebrities and music industry professionals alike. These ten bands will all be vying for the top prize of a 2-year record deal. Even if these bands don’t make it to the podium, they will still be receiving great exposure from radio, e-blasts and Skinnie Magazine. The event will also be streamed live over the web so even their hometown fans can watch the show.
