ST23 Final Round Listening Party, Contestant Voting and Bonus Round

This blog post is packed with info, so please do give it a read!

First of all, congratulations to our four finalists, all of whom submitted competing entries to the Final Round. We also have eleven Final Round shadows, and your first chance to hear all fifteen songs is at tonight's Listening Party hosted by Tommy G!

Tommy G will start spinning the Final Round tunes at 10 pm tonight. Join us on YouTube or embedded below!

Contestant Voting

Our panel of judges have been offering their opinions throughout the contest, but they don't get the last word! In the Final Round, it's the previously eliminated contestants who rank the entries!

In other words, if you had a competing entry in Round 1 and not in the Final Round, you get a vote to determine the SpinTunes 23 Champion. A ballot will be sent to you by email later this week, and all votes will be due by Sunday, October 27 at 11:59 pm EDT. You'll be asked to rank all four entries from your favorite to least favorite, just as the judges have been doing.

Bonus Round

While you're mulling over your votes, you also have a chance to celebrate all the music of SpinTunes 23 by submitting a cover version to the Bonus Album! Record your own version of any competing entry or shadow from any round of SpinTunes 23. We'll hear all the covers at one last Listening Party on Monday October 28, when the Final Round voting results and the identity of the SpinTunes 23 Champion will also be revealed!
