Get Ready For Your Big Break!

Are you, or someone you know, looking to break into the hot Canadian music scene? Entertainment One (eOne) and Begin Again are searching for Canada’s top undiscovered music talent!

Whether you are a Canadian singer or Canadian band, this contest may just be your ticket to a life-changing experience! Upload your original music to this new YouTube contest and you may just find yourself the winner of a musical recording session at Metalworks Studios and a Digital Distribution opportunity from eOne Music, worth up to $10,000.

For those of you who don’t know, eOne Music is the #1 independent music distributor in North America.  Begin Again is the new soul-stirring comedy starring Keira Knightley and Adam Levine (of Maroon 5 fame).

“Gretta (Keira Knightley) and her long-time boyfriend Dave (Adam Levine) are college sweethearts and songwriting partners who decamp for New York when he lands a deal with a major label. But the trappings of his new-found fame soon tempt Dave to stray, and a reeling, lovelorn Gretta is left on her own. Her world takes a turn for the better when Dan (Mark Ruffalo), a disgraced record-label exec, stumbles upon her performing on an East Village stage and is immediately captivated by her raw talent. From this chance encounter emerges an enchanting portrait of a mutually transformative collaboration, set to the soundtrack of a summer in New York City.” 

Our friend, Eric Alper, Director Of Media Relations at eOne Music, and Host of ThatEricAlper’s Show on SiriusXM, is joining forces with Canadian Recording Artist and Winner of Canadian Idol Eva Avila, Nathan Quinn (A&R and Label Acquisitions at eOne Music) and Kevin Dietz of Metalworks Studios to select the four finalists, and the winning song.

“eOne Music Canada’s mission is to discover Canada’s next big star and showcase their stunning talent to listeners here, and around the world,” says Eric Alper, Director of Media Relations for eOne Music Canada. “We’re thrilled to be part of the Begin Again YouTube contest, so get your best song ready!”
