Your OurStage Field Rep
Thanks for checking out OurStage – the only 100% democratic competition where the fans decide who’s best in indie music – that means the FANS have a real voice and YOU have a real shot.
OurStage.com is a music discovery destination run by people who are passionate about independent, emerging talent. First and foremost, it's a place for every single band and artist to network, gain exposure, and make new friends and fans. Then there's the FREE electronic press kit we offer you. Of course we can't forget the monthly prizes (songs are ranked 100% democratically by listeners' picks, by the way) like cash, performance opportunities at festivals like Bonnaroo and SXSW, and other great stuff like recording software.
There's Marketplace, a great place for venues and artists to connect for gigs. Don't forget our PartyLines, where artists and fans (or artists and artists, or fans and fans...) get to chat live, or our Listening Parties where you can treat your fans to brand new music in an exciting way! OurStage provides emerging artists with career-changing professional opportunities. And, it's fun for the fans too!
