Buster Blue 21 300x187 CD Baby Jingle Contest And the Winner is…Drum roll, please…

One month and 106 entries later we have a winner! Well, make that “winners” plural. We narrowed the 100+ submissions down to 20, then down to a handful which our staff voted on, and we came up with a dead tie. So, congrats to The Lennings and Buster Blue both for your winning submissions!

Have a listen to The Lennings’ entry here and Buster Blue’s entry here.

 

You can also hear their great original music on CD Baby!

The Lennings on CD Baby.

Bluster Blue on CD Baby.

They both win 500 download cards, a year of web hosting from HostBaby including 5 free album submissions on CD Baby, and of course a whole lot of love online!

We’d also like to give an honorable mention to Raku The Narrator for his entry. Check out his 30-second jingle here, or the full length here. We’re going to hook up Raku with a year of web hosting from HostBaby as well (including 5 free album submissions on CD Baby)!

Given that we had so many awesome entries, we’d also like to call attention to a few other standouts. Check out their CD Baby jingles by clicking their names below, or click the CD Baby link to hear their original music:

    Congrats yourself. Thanks so much for the jingle. Sounds great. And let us know if you’re having any upload troubles. And– on a related note, is that audio book also an actual book? If so, check out http://www.bookbaby.com if you’d like to sell it for Kindle, Nook, iPad, etc.
