The Sound and the Jury

For the second year in a row, Austin City Limits Festival (ACL Fest) is hosting an online band competition called the “Sound and the Jury.”  Presented by Dell Lounge, the Sound and the Jury contest gives emerging bands the opportunity to generate national exposure, compete for great prizes and launch a career by performing on the Dell Stage at the 2008 Austin City Limits Festival.  

 

Last year the Athens, Georgia-based band Blue Flashing Light entered the competition, made it to the Top 5, and headed to Austin, Texas for the finals.  The winner, however, was the band in the video below, Homer Hiccolm and the Rocketboys.

 

Contest information may be found at www.delllounge.com/soundandjury. Anyone got any Atlanta bands in mind that should give it a shot?
