REDONDO BEACH ARTIST, LINDSEY HARPER, WINS FIRST PLACE IN UNSIGNED ONLY MUSIC COMPETITION

John Oates, Rosanne Cash, Of Monsters and Men, Dustin Lynch, Mike Posner, Neon Trees, and 3 Doors Down Are Among 2014 Judges

September 16, 2014 - Unsigned Only Music Competition is pleased to announce its 2014 winners selected from over 8,000 entries worldwide. The First Place for Vocal Performance goes to the up-and-coming Artist Lindsey Harper with her song “Electricity.” Judged by a roster of high-profile journalists and artists such as Of Monsters And Men, Rosanne Cash, Mike Posner, John Oates, Dustin Lynch, Anthony DeCurtis (Contributing Editor, Rolling Stone), and many more, Unsigned Only is a unique music competition for solo artists and bands who are unsigned to a major label.

When told the news that she had won Lindsey Harper responded with, "Wow this is so exciting I am so honored thank you! I can’t wait to release the song as a single in November!"

Lindsey Harper has one of the most gorgeous voices in popular music. She’s toured internationally with Selena Gomez, and she sang on Gomez’s acclaimed When The Sun Goes Down. Lindsey also sang the theme song for the ABC Family hit series HUGE, and she sings with the band PowPow on a song placed on an upcoming Garnier Fructis commercial. As a performing musician, she’s made television appearances on The People’s Choice Awards, Ellen DeGeneres, Good Morning America, and Jimmy Fallon. With Selena Gomez, she has shared the stage with Michele Bublé, Katie Perry, Justin Bieber, Bruno Mars, and Adam Lambert, among many others. As a solo artist, she has shared the stage with the likes of Rachelle Ferrell, Everlast, Take 6, Booker T, and Stanley Clark, and she’s had the opportunity to perform in front of an audience of 90,000 people at the Houston Rodeo. She also accomplished every musician’s dream to sing at Madison Square Garden in New York City. It takes a lot of confidence to sing onstage alongside Selena Gomez at Madison Square Garden. But it takes more confidence to walk away from that glitzy showbiz world to dedicate your life to your own artistry. That’s just what singer-songwriter Lindsey Harper has boldly done, and now she’s readying her stunning album, All Of Me.
