Brad Paisley Brief
Ladies and gentlemen, presenting one of country music’s biggest, freshest, and most unpredictable stars… He’s here to play some songs and tell some stories, to make a racket and break some hearts… He’s gonna help us all take part in a time honored tradition, loved and cherished from Nashville to San Francisco and all points in between… It’s time to let your hair down, kick up your heels, and have some good clean fun… It’s an American Saturday Night, everybody, so let’s welcome to the Zooppa stage the one and only: Brad Paisley!
That’s right everybody! Zooppa is teaming up with one of the biggest stars in the world to present one of our most exciting competitions ever. Arista Nashville recording artist Brad Paisley has sold millions of records, charted 14 number one singles on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart (the last 10 releases by Brad Paisley all went #1. That is TEN #1 songs is a row), and he’s won multiple Grammy awards, Academy of Country Music awards, and Country Music Association awards. Paisley’s unique blend of humor, sincerity, compassion, and instrumental prowess make him a force unlike any other country musician.
That’s why it’s such a thrill to announce that Brad Paisley wants you, the Zooppa Community, to help promote his eighth album, American Saturday Night. The album retains Paisley’s trademark humor as well as his gift for the well-turned phrase, it also contains some of his most heartfelt and sincere songs.
Arista has provided you with a 90 second edit of the album’s title track “American Saturday Night.” Use the music as the soundtrack for your video ads reflecting the special joy and wonder of an American Saturday Night.
Or make a banner ad reflecting the feeling and themes of the new album.
The most important thing is that your videos and banners prominently communicate the following:
• Brad Paisley’s new album is called American Saturday Night
• Album cover of American Saturday Night
• American Saturday Night is available for purchase starting on JUNE 30TH
As always, cash prizes will go to the best videos and banners. In addition, there will be some special prizes. The creators of each winning video will get an autographed copy of American Saturday Night on CD. And the winner of the brand prize for video will get an exclusive Brad Paisley plaque.
This competition runs from June 15th until August 3rd.
