Local favorite Paul Basile passed along word today that he’s participating in the Music Nation Video Contest. The weekly contest lets unsigned artists send in videos to the website and be voted on by professional musicians, fans, and curious web-browsers. The winners each week go on tournament style, competing against other winners from other weeks. The winner in each genre at the end of the contest gets a record deal with Epic Records.
The video you’ll find at Music Nation is Paul playing “Further North” from Skeletons at a recent show at Bar Matchless in Brooklyn, NY. Click here for a direct link to watch his performance. Then register at the site and vote.
"Further North" was the #3 song of 2006 on the Pop Headwound Top 20 songs of the year. If this site had existed then I’d be able to prove it. Believe me though, the playlist is in my iTunes.
Paul’s been hard at work since releasing Skeletons last year. Besides playing shows all over Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Alaska (and even as far away as Long Island and the Bronx) he’s found time to write and record some new tunes, thaw out his beard, make a lot of internet friends on myspace, and totally rock Bar Matchless with his new band, Here Lies Pa. Let’s go folks, head over there and vote for Paul.
Check out Paul’s website here to keep up with what‘s happening in his world.
