Corus Entertainment is giving aspiring country singers a chance to shine in its second annual country music talent competition, beginning April 2 when its radio stations The New Country 95.3 (Hamilton), CISN Country (Edmonton), KG Country (Red Deer, Alta.) and Country 105 (Calgary) hold auditions. The eight-week contest sends local winners to the third annual Canada Day jam at Sunnyside Park in Toronto. The winner also receives a free recording session, a CMT Canada-produced video and their song featured on Max Trax’s CMT digital music channel and http://www.maxtrax.com.
There are currently no national sponsorships in the works but participating stations are open to proposals in their local markets.
