Press Release


The Tejano music industry is filled with some of the most talented artists in the world but rarely do they receive the national spotlight they deserve. Here is your chance to catapult one of our own into that spotlight!


Country Music Television (CMT) is hosting a contest called "Music City Madness".  From the initial 64 acts selected by CMT there are only eight acts left in the contest.  The Electric Cowboys (Grupo Vida) is one of the remaining eight.  So what will it take to send them to the next level?  Your vote!

Go the website. Check out their video "Because I Love You" and cast your vote online.  Be sure to click on the button "Submit Vote" for your vote to count. You can vote as many times as you'd like through midnight on Monday, November 24.

Here's the exciting part:  If the Electric Cowboys win, they will be flown to Nashville to tape their own "Unplugged at Studio 330" performance and for their own private showcase with A&R executives from Warner Bros. Records Nashville.  PLUS... Grammy-winning artist Randy Travis will mentor the winner.

How exciting is that? And how awesome would it be to see a Tejano/Country artist in the CMT winner's circle?  We can make it happen!  Please vote. And then vote again!
