Corrin Campbell and The Election Win Duo/Band Song 4
Corrin Campbell has just claimed her second song victory, as she follows the Female Vocalist triumph of her piano and vocal ballad "When It Rains" with another $50 cash prize win - this time by the song "Sunbeam" which features the full-on rock and roll backing of her band The Election.
Make A Star's 4th Song music contest for duos or bands expanded to 8 contestants, and the past three weeks saw some close matches amongst the diverse array of exciting new bands filling up the Make A Star airwaves. The other finalist of the bracket contest was British Columbia, Canada hard rock band Quartered, who hoped to follow fellow Canadian acts Natalie Brown and Eireann O'Day with a $50 win. Quartered's song "Mandible", a cut from their 2008 album "Straight Out The Sandbox" is an impressive track that alternative rock guitar fans of Tool or Mudvayne need to hear. Clocking in at 5:34, "Mandible" is a dramatic journey of a song with many sonic peaks and valleys.
Listen to Quartered Mandible' and Corrin Campbell and the Election Sunbeam' here.
Corrin Campbell is a native of Superior, Wisconsin, the state's cold northwest corner on the Minnesota border. After high school, she joined the Army and served as a vocalist and bass guitarist in the Army Band Field. Corrin was then deployed with the 1st Calvary Division in Baghdad, Iraq to serve in the Iraq war. Her official Wikipedia entry states that most of her time in Iraq "consisted of travel by Blackhawk to entertain soldiers across Iraq. She was featured at many high-profile shows, including the farewell parties of General Ricardo Sanchez and Ambassador Paul Bremer. She also met and opened for Robin Williams, Ted Nugent and Toby Keith when their USO tours came through Baghdad."
Since returning from Iraq, Corrin has made the Baltimore, Maryland area her home and performs live with her band The Election, which features drummer Tony Corbett and Jim Boyer on Guitar. The band plays regular gigs throughout the Baltimore, Washington D.C. and Virginia regions, and this year has also played shows in Nashville, Austin and Atlanta.
With such strong life experiences to build on, Corrin Campbell seems poised for a bright road ahead, and music fans should be excited to know that a lot more new songs will be a part of that future. Make A Star is proud to have an artist able to create songs as diverse and catchy as "When It Rains" and "Sunbeam" in its list of 2009 contest winners.
