Only if you vote before 17:00 CEST June 27th (that's UTC+2) your vote will count (or a little later until the new announcement post is up :-) ). Also, episode 2 will be announced tomorrow so if you missed this episode, make sure to check back then to see who won and write about, support, shoutout and promote a Steemian band/artist yourself!

An amazing high-quality episode yet again. 27 amazing reviews have now been written as part of the Bands About Bands contest in total and this shows that it's quickly becoming the go-to contest for engagement, support and proper shoutouts! Giving exposure to bands and artists you love, that's what the independent music industry and Steemit should be all about.
