Here comes the Reggae Song Contest of the Americas

Planning is underway in Toronto for the first Reggae Song Contest of the Americas, an online activity being implemented by Lee Media Associates. 

The goal of the Reggae Song Contest is to contribute to increasing the visibility of reggae and its share of the North American music market.

The contest will draw entries only from unsigned artistes from North America and the Caribbean, as well as Central and South America.

Submissions must be in English.

This development follows the June 2014 Sierra Nevada World Music Festival held in Boonville, California, where a "reggae music business" panel discussion was staged in response to the concerns of performers, music producers, managers, promoters and fans regarding the decline in reggae music business activities and revenues within the North American music market.

The contest will be run over a period of four months, with promotional activities through social and traditional media to attract a maximum of 200 unsigned entrants . Each must submit one original song in video format.
