And we're off! Two awesome submissions already :-) This really made us so happy to see such engagement already. Read the announcement post with all instructions and write about an independent artist that deserves more attention! We do all For The Love Of Bands and hopefully so do you :-) Looking forward to reading more awesome articles like the ones you see below.
Jon Magnusson (
) was the very first to publish a review for our new #BandsAboutBands contest. He wrote a wonderful review about Darren Claxton. Find Jon's review here
Darren Claxton (
) took the opportunity, returned the favour and wrote this awesome review about Jon Magnusson. Check out Darren's review here Darren has a new account () because some shitface (good-kama) hacked his mrbloom account and stole his money.
So awesome to see such engagement in this first episode already!
I really like the Steemit community spirit and therefore have launched a Bands about Bands contest. A couple of benefits of participating:
- Your post will be added to www.fortheloveofbands.com and ALL submissions will be added there to support both you and the band / artist you’re writing about;
- We’ll all be promoting Steemit on multiple platforms, as it will be posted on our website, shared on all of our socials, resteemed at
Steemit profile and hopefully shared on bands’ socials and Steemit profiles;
- As BandsAboutBands will be a Steemit-only feature from now on, it will direct more people to Steemit;
- You will give something back to the community with promoting other artists;
- Both you and the artist you’re writing about, will be added to our new ‘Bands about Bands’ Spotify and Soundcloud playlist.
