Deadline: September 30, 2014
Participate in the world’s largest online music contest and get the chance to win 25,000 USD! We all love to listen to music for free on the internet. It’s a great deal for fans, but bands need to make some money to produce new songs and videos. Global Rockstar is a music platform for artists and fans, offering new ways for musicians around the world to generate awareness, promotion, audience participation and revenues.
Global Rockstar conducts the world’s largest online music contest. Fans can vote for their favorite artists for free via social media, and they can also support the artists via paid votes (ROCK’N VOTES): The artist gets 50 % of the net revenues from each ROCK’N VOTE. In return, the voter receives unique rewards from the artist.
Artists can raise additional revenue from donation-based crowdfunding and from brand-sponsoring possibilities.
Prizes
