Band Wanted

Spin Magazine and Music Nation are looking for unsigned bands to enter their Band Wanted contest:

  • Videos • MP3s • Photos • Event Listings

    Music Nation wants to give you a record deal! But to get it, you need to upload your music videos, MP3s and pictures. Post blogs, leave comments and promote your shows. Impress our judges and mobilize the fans to go to the next level.

  • Embed Your Video • Email Your Friends

    The Music Nation player can be embedded anywhere: MySpace, in blogs and on your homepage. Everywhere you can use code, you can place your video. Our player is higher quality than the competition. If you want fans to see your work at its best, use us.

  • Vote Online • Vote Via SMS • Vote

    Let artists know how you feel by casting your votes and rating their videos. You can vote online, via text or ESP. Okay, so you can't vote using mind tricks yet, but we're working on it. Hit up our forums or talk to your favorite artists one on one with our messaging system.

  • Win A Record Deal • Win Weekly Prizes

    Music Nation will reward the very best Spin Hot Pursuit artist with a record deal, professional gear, cool threads and everything else it takes to become a career musician. Weekly winners can take home sweet prizes, too. The biggest fans and boldest talkers in our forums will also be recognized and rewarded.

Win a development deal with Epic, a slot at Spin's SXSW party in 2008, a song inclusion in an upcoming video game, and some more stuff. Perry Farrell will be one of the judges.

Music Nation has another contest going for bands around New England:
NEW ENGLAND BANDS, time to make your hometown's proud! Create your Music Nation profile and get started on your Rock Star Rising entry now. Upload your videos, MP3s and photos, and start using the promotional tools. The judges will be watching, The Phoenix, WFNX and Music Nation communities will be voting. One hard-working band will be handed a record contract, perform at the WFNX holiday show, and be carried on the shoulders of New England rock fans from here to eternity...
