posted in: OurStage Updates

Calle 8 is planning to throw one hell of a party this year in Miami and is looking for the best Latin artists in Florida to perform at Calle 8 2011 on the official Estrellas De Carnaval Stage. That’s why the hottest Latin festival in Miami is teaming up with OurStage to launch the Estrellas De Carnaval Competition. Eight Latin artists, selected from the Top 20 ranked artists in the channel, will be invited to perform on the “Estrellas De Carnaval” Stage at Calle Ocho 2011 on March 13th. The festival will stretch to over 23 blocks of the city featuring music, food and festivities from all walks of Latin life, an awesome opportunity for an up and coming Latin artist to gain exposure. After each performer has given their all on the stage, audience members will be able to call a designated 1-800 number to vote for their favorite performance of the day. The artists with the most votes cast will be considered the Grand Prize Winner and will receive an electric Gibson guitar as well as a meet-and-greet with the “King of Calle Ocho” and “Ms. Carnaval Queen” and her Court (past carnaval “royalty” has included Gloria Estefan, Celia Cruz, Chayanne, Thalia, Jon Secada, Elvis Crespo, Cachao Lopez, Willy Chirino, Olga Guillot and Desi Arnaz to mention a few). This competition is only open for submissions until March 3rd and judging ends March 8th so hurry and enter your best original song now if you want a shot at this awesome opportunity!
