Flatts Fans Spellbound on Eve of Voting in Karaoke Challenge

Contestants performed over the summer at Rascal Flatts’ Flatts Fest amphitheater dates.

 

Seymour, TN -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/31/2011 -- Rascal Flatts fans are waiting anxiously for the Flatts Fest 2011 Karaoke Challenge, sponsored by Starkey and powered by Chartbuster Karaoke and Roland, as November and the start of voting approaches.

Hundreds competed in daily contests during the summer at select Rascal Flatts amphitheater dates across the country, with twenty-four winners advancing to the final round. Daily winners got a chance to meet the band backstage, had their video played on the big screen during the concert, received upgraded tickets and a one-year subscription to Chartbuster Karaoke’s 24/7 streaming service.

One additional competitor was selected as a “wild-card” winner to compete nationally, based on online votes for the video of their performance. Each of them will vie for the opportunity to open for Rascal Flatts at a select date in 2012, a studio session at Big Mama Recording Studios in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, their own CD with two original tunes and eight covers, custom artwork for the CD, two single releases on iTunes, a photo session, a guitar autographed by the band, and a Roland karaoke player.

“We’re so excited to be a part of Flatts Fest Karaoke Challenge 2011,” said Norbert Stovall, CEO of Big Mama Digital Entertainment. “Being able to present two dozen outstanding singers with the chance to win such an unprecedented prize is a dream come true for us, as it will be for the winner.”

Each performer’s video will be posted to a special page on Facebook for public voting. Video performances can be shared, liked and posted to fan’s own pages. In addition, Chartbuster Karaoke will give away a free one-year subscription to their 24/7 Karaoke Streaming service to one lucky voter each week. Fans can find links to the voting page at RascalFlatts.com, BigMachineRecords.com, and ChartbusterKaraoke.com.
