My Church Band Rocks!
OFFICIAL RULES

You have a chance to record your song at Red Hammer Records for FREE. First you need to submit a recording of a familiar song (like you would hear on your Northwest WAY-FM) for potential airing on your Northwest WAY-FM for My Church Band Rocks.

Your Northwest WAY-FM wants to celebrate the people who give the gift of music to our churches and community. We want to share the musical talent that serve in our churches each week and inform our listeners of local churches that host these independent artists or worship teams.

Submitting familiar songs heard on your Northwest WAY-FM (as opposed to original songs) will increase your chances of being picked. Music will be reviewed and evaluated based on the performance level of the talent, production value of the recording and relevance to our audience. If you choose to submit an original song, keep in mind that the songwriting will also be judged by the standards of the songs regularly heard on your Northwest WAY-FM - in other words, it could be tougher for original songs to be played.

Each week, three songs from three churches will be selected. If your song is selected, you and your church will be notified in time for everyone at your church to know to vote for your church's song online at our Facebook page or on our website. The song that receives the most votes will go to the next round and compete against two more bands and the final winner at the end of each month will win studio time at Red Hammer Records.

Each Month one artist or band will win studio time at Red Hammer Records.


The prize includes:
     1 song recorded by your band at the Red Hammer Records state-of-the-art Pro-Tools recording studio. This includes recording, mix down and mastering - 4 hours of recording and 6 hours of mixing.
     Also 30% off if you would like to record additional songs at Red Hammer Records

Some considerations for your entry:

*Artists must have a local church home where you worship in your Northwest WAY-FM’s listening area

*Ideal songs are familiar worship songs and songs heard on your Northwest WAY-FM

*Original songs will be considered, but the songwriting standards and musical style will be evaluated consistent with the standards and style of music regularly heard on your Northwest WAY-FM

*Ideal song length is 3-4 minutes; we reserve the right to edit songs for airplay

*If multiple songs are submitted by a single artist, we cannot guarantee we will listen to all songs

*If your song is chosen, you and your church will be notified by phone, email, or both.

*We cannot reply personally to all entries
