You could be country's next big star...

The search is on for the next winner of CMT.com's Music City Madness -- the ultimate competition for unsigned artists and musicians representing the broad range of country music genres. This season, the stakes are even higher as performers from across the country vie for a trip to Nashville to tape their own Unplugged at Studio 330 performance and for their own private showcase with A&R; executives from Sony BMG Nashville. This contest could be your big chance for stardom, so find out how to submit your video. But don't wait. The deadline for your submissions is Oct. 15, 2007. Amateur bands, singers, songwriters and producers, send your performance today and get on the road to Music City.

The top 64 entries will fill the Music City Madness 2 brackets, and on Oct. 23 the head-to-head competition begins. The fans will narrow the field with each online vote for their favorite video entry. When the dust settles, only one winner will remain.

Last season, more than 1 million votes were cast as fans crowned Nashville resident Stephanie Beck Williams the winner with her original song, "D.R.U.N.K." After moving to Nashville, she began writing full time and doing session work for other writers and music publishers. She's sung on national and international commercials as a sessions singer.
