TIJUANA FLATS ANNOUNCES 2010 MUSIC CONTEST WINNERS
Twelve Artists Selected From Across the County Set to “Rock Out” Tijuana Flats Web Site
ORLANDO, Fla. – Tijuana Flats, notorious for its fresh Tex-Mex
food and mouth-numbing hot sauce, has named the winners of their third annual Tijuana Flats
“Rock Out With Your Guac Out!” Music Contest.
Promoted primarily though the restaurant's social media networks during July, unsigned artists,
bands, and groups from all musical backgrounds were encouraged to submit up to three of their
most upbeat and fun songs to tijuanaflats.com/rockout. After narrowing down the entries, the
Tijuana Flats panel of judges have selected twelve winners who will each be featured for one
month on www.tijuanaflats.com, the restaurant's Webby award-winning Web site, which
receives an average of 34,000 visitors a month.
In total, the contest received almost 200 musical selections to choose from, including
submissions from states such as California and Georgia, where there isn't a Tijuana Flats for
miles.
“We created the 'Rock Out' contest as a fun opportunity to give independent musical artists the
chance to kick start their careers,” said Brian Wheeler, founder of Tijuana Flats. “By offering this contest, Tijuana Flats is able to continue to give back to the community by providing up and coming artists the chance to gain exposure through the Tijuana Flats' Web site. And in return, we get awesome music to play on our site.”
