Yamaha, a world leader for musical instruments and audio equipment, has joined in to provide custom prize packages for the top winners. Beginning this week, songwriters can submit an original song through the IndieHeaven website (www.indieheaven.com/tylersride) to be reviewed by a panel of top industry professionals from both the music and entertainment worlds, including record label executives and movie music supervisors. First place winners will receive a complete Yamaha recording package including Cubase 4 and the new AudioGram 6 audio interface (valued at $1200.00) and the possibility of having their song featured in one of the Season 2 episodes. Sue L. Ross, artist relations director for IndieHeaven comments: “With the growing success of today’s ‘webisodes’, we are excited to give our members at IndieHeaven yet another avenue and opportunity to strut their ‘multi-media’ indie talents on this fun and entertaining series”. Created and produced by Paulist Productions, Tyler’s Ride is the latest in the growing world of Internet television. With general market hits like Quarterlife and Roommates, this expanding medium is becoming a launching point for writers and actors, showcasing new talent such as Tyler’s Ride lead actors Grant Alan and Natalie Wachen. Also featuring Christian music favorite, Jeremy Camp, in his acting debut, new episodes of the web series are posted each Tuesday, taking viewers into the life of Tyler, an aspiring musician, and his quest to follow his dreams. “The Web TV series follows the adventures of Tyler, a young man whose search for identity and purpose leads him to his new-found passion for music,” explains Paulist Productions. “Aspiring musicians can watch episodes on the website for inspiration.
