Cover Riddarna – win vinyls and stuff!
It doesn’t matter how you do it. Film yourself with your mobile phone while performing it live and upload it to youtube or record the song with a crappy microphone at your kitchen table. You don’t have to sing in tune or have all six strings present on your guitar. You don’t even need a guitar. As long as you make a cover version of a Riddarna tune, you can’t go wrong.
Do you need song lyrics translated from Swedish to English? Send an e-mail to tavling@riddarna.com.
The best cover version is selected by the jury and the winner will recieve, except unlimited fame and glory, the new limited Bakom Molnen vinyl, the debut album vinyl, t-shirts and free entrance to all the upcoming gigs 2012.
Send a link, audio file or video clip to:
tavling@riddarna.com no later than october, 22th.
Check out THE jury here!
Riddarna is now part of the United Stage family
We are very pleased to announce that we have started working with United Stage!
