BOSTON, Mass. – Oct. 30 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — OurStage.com, an online community that allows independent musicians and filmmakers to compete for recognition and prizes by connecting directly with fans, has signed on to work with Street Attack to promote the new OurStage Facebook application. Street Attack will be launching an online viral campaign in November 2007.
Street Attack’s online campaign will adhere to the authentic nature of the OurStage community by reaching out directly to niche music groups and individuals who are into discovering new music, as well as those interested in pursuing careers in music, film, and the arts. The campaign will tap into social media avenues such as Facebook, blogs, and forums to encourage adoption of the OurStage Facebook application.
“When it comes to what’s hot in the online viral world right now, Facebook applications and independent music channels are definitely two topics that come to mind,” says Terry Lozoff, Managing Director at Street Attack. “OurStage brings these two arenas together in a unique way and gives Street Attack an opportunity to do what we’re best at – directly reach people through grassroots/viral methods and let them discover what’s new and cool.”
The OurStage Facebook application, called Talent Scout, challenges users to test their ear for talent by voting for songs that they believe are most likely to be crowd favorites. Participants in the game compete for several prizes including a grand prize trip to the SXSW Music Festival.
