Björk News: New Video and Contest!

Tuesday, April 24th, 2007

Two exciting pieces of Björk news, today:

First, the video for “Earth Intruders,” the first single off Volta, has been released! It’s availabable for purchase on iTunes right now - or you can just watch the preview for free.

And more news! The video for “Innocence” (also on Volta) will be created by…maybe you! Björk is accepting submissions for the video through August. Then, she’ll pick a winner and collaborate with her/him to create the actual thing. That’s a fabulous opportunity for some creative person!

All the info on the competition is here - including the song! So, that’s two singles we’ve been able to hear now. The excitement builds!

Wednesday, April 18th, 2007

To my UK readers (or anybody else ready to hop on a plane): You could win tickets to a secret Amy Winehouse show in Bristol tomorrow night. Here’s what you have to do:

“Amy will be performing a secret gig somewhere in Bristol tomorrow (Thur 19th) with Vodafone TBA and we have 10 pairs of tickets to give away.

The first 10 people to email alastair.smith@umusic.com with their name, address, age and mobile number will win.
Go, go go…!”

You’d better act fast! And if you win - be sure to tell me!

Verve Sweepstakes

Tuesday, April 3rd, 2007

Enter to win a trip (with a friend) to Los Angeles to see Loreena McKennitt in concert or to win an iPod Shuffle. (Is it strange that they specify you would win a “new” iPod Shuffle?)

And perhaps you’d like to take a quick swing by Loreena’s site and sample some tracks from her newest album - An Ancient Muse.
