Nineteen year old Hana Pestle relocated from Montana to Los Angeles two years ago to pursue her music career. With the help of writer and producer Michael "Fish" Herring (Prince, Christina Aguilera, Tupac), and Evanescence co-founder, Ben Moody (Avril Lavigne, Kelly Clarkson, Celine Dion), her self-titled EP was released in 2008. Internet marketing has been an integral part of Hana's success: "Stereofame is my favorite site because it incorporates the listener more than any of the other sites out there. The hits on my website, my sales & my fan base have increased significantly since I joined Stereofame," says Pestle.
She plans on using her contest earnings to manufacture more merchandise to sell on her upcoming tour.
The Stereofame Artist of the Month contest is the hottest tool for independent talent to gain international exposure, get serious objective written reviews and win a $1,000.00 cash prize. Monthly winners qualify for the upcoming Artist of the Year contest, where $5,000.00 is up for grabs, along with other promotional exposure. There’s also a competition for the listeners where the more votes they post, the more chances they have at a 10,000 point prize! The more points the artists and listeners earn, the more they can cash in for killer rewards like iPhones, surfboards and PlayStations.
Artists can enter next month's Artist of the Month Contest by submitting up to three songs to www.Stereofame.com/contest/artist-of-the-month.html.
In today's evolving music scene, it's an exciting time to be an artist and a fan, especially at Stereofame, where they both get exactly what they deserve. The chance to have a voice and have it be heard and rewarded!
