TripleClicks.com Seeking Artists for New Music Center & Contest

International e-commerce site, TripleClicks.com, has announced its entry into the online music arena with a new music center, set to debut on April 1, 2012. Music artists worldwide are invited to begin adding their music now to get a jump on introducing their sounds to TripleClicks.com's nearly 1.3 million members. Registering is FREE, and all artists get their own Artist Page on TripleClicks.com to promote their music, communicate with fans, sell tickets and merchandise, and more.

TripleClicks.com president, Gery Carson, emphasizes the site's purpose to help new artists expand their audience: "There are thousands of amazing, unsigned singers, songwriters, and bands all over the world. Most just aren't able to find a way to break through to audiences that can propel them to prominence. We want to be the place where these artists can get their music heard. We also think artists will really like how simple and easy we've made it for them to participate."
TripleClicks Music is coordinating its arrival online with a "song-of-the-month" contest. Artists interested in the inaugural contest may upload an entry before April 1st, 2012. The entry can be any original song previously recorded or a new, original song written/recorded just for the contest. There's no cost to enter the contest; and each month there will be a new "song-of-the month" contest to enter. Beginning April 1st, TripleClicks.com members in more than 190 countries will begin listening to and voting for their favorites songs in the contest.  Each vote also includes an instant download of the chosen song.  The song with the most votes at the end of the month wins!  The winning song will be featured on TripleClicks.com's homepage for the entire month of May 2012 and available for download by members.
What's more, the contest will name a winner for each of 14 GENRES each month, giving artists multiple opportunities for recognition and bragging rights. Genres include:

Alternative
Blues
Country
Dance/Techno
Folk
Hip Hop/Rap
Humor
Jazz
