Looking For Bands Inspired By NEW ORDER
Florida independent record label, 24 Hour Service Station, is assembling a tribute album honoring the music of New Order entitled CEREMONY: A New Order Tribute benefiting the Salford Foundation Trust's Tony Wilson Award.
Proceeds from record sales will go to the Tony Wilson Award, established in memory of Tony Wilson, the founding father of landmark independent record label Factory Records, who died of cancer in 2007. The trust will benefit children and young people who can demonstrate a special talent or ambition in the arts or creative skills.
We are putting the word out for ALL BANDS who would like to participate in this project and submit a version of their favorite New Order song.
The top 30 cover submissions will make it onto the physical album.
Contributing artists are offering up 2 covers, a version of their favorite New Order track, as well as their take on “Ceremony” for the extra disc.
Our deadline for submissions is May 31, 2009.
The double CD and digital album is scheduled for release in the fall of 2009.
