UNSIGNED? GET HEARD WITH 42UNHEARD!

42BELOW want to propel one lucky act to the forefront of the music scene, and they have tailored an incredible prize to do just this…

The winner gets a release deal and A&R support from Universal records, a trip to New York to perform at the influential CMJ music marathon (where bands such as MGMT, Beastie Boys and Red Hot Chili Peppers made their name), music video funding from NZ On Air, studio time, band profile in Real Groove, LG phones, and more. And if that isn’t enough, 10 lucky runner-up bands will also receive recording time in the Red Bull Studio.

To be in with a chance to win all you need to do is upload one of your original tracks and fill in your band or act info on the registration page. Once this is done, the judges will choose their favourite 20 songs and put them up for voting. The top 5 bands as voted by the public then battle it out in a live final in Auckland in December, with the winner taking all.
