Ladies and gents and musicians of all phases...
Bullseye has just signed a Canada-only distribution deal to release the
"Light Of Day: A Tribute To Bruce Springsteen" all star 2CD set. The package
has been out in the US and UK for sometime now, but we will be introducing
it to the Canadian market for the first time ever in May.
The package serves to introduce the world to new renditions of classic
Springsteen opuses as well as raise money for two individual charites:
100% of the net proceeds from sales of this CD set will be split evenly
between the Parkinson's Disease Foundation and the Kristen Ann Carr Fund
which fights Sarcoma, a rare cancer.
Because we're so late getting it out in Canada and the market being
semi-saturated with the US version of this set, we've decided to help up the
sales ante for raising more money towards the cause. We'd like to add a
third CD to the package -- exclusively for Canada. We are asking any
musicians wanting to offer up a track for free if they can submit something
no later than April 10th.
Below is a list of songs already on the set...it's preferred that people not
pick something already represented:
Elliott Murphy - Better Days
Dion - Book of Dreams

We are looking for quality recorded tracks. Everyone is welcome and
recordings will be judged on their own merits but will certainly need to
compliment the amazing line-up above (i.e. no speed metal or punk renditions
of stuff thanks). Alas, we cannot guarantee placement.
