Long & McQuade’s Head-to-Head Music Showdown

Welcome to Long & McQuade’s first ever online Head-to-Head Music Showdown!

Whether you’re a budding Bublé, a fledgling  Feist or an aspiring Arcade Fire – we want to hear your music, and of course we want you to HAVE FUN in the process.

Upload your musical gem, and check www.long-mcquade.com every Monday morning starting July 29th for the weekly Showdown schedule, so that you can tell your family and friends when to tune in and vote.

The daily winner (as decided by greatest percentage of votes) will be featured on Long & McQuade’s national Facebook page and website the (business) day after victory.

After all showdowns have taken place, the Top 10 submissions in each category will be reviewed and voted on by a panel of judges, and one grand prize winner in each category will be selected.

The grand prize in each category is a $1000 Long & McQuade gift card. The nine runners up in each category will receive a $100 Long & McQuade gift card.

Good luck to everyone!
