The JamNation Volume 2 disc is slated for release between late June and early July. We wanted to make sure that all of the top 12 artists you voted for on The 4th Judge were included on the disc using the best possible original material at their disposal. The disc is also going to be released on a more global scale as to meet the demand that we experienced with Volume 1 with more copies being pressed in the first and second runs along with greater digital access beyond iTunes and JammerStream.

As for the 2010-2011 Single Search we are slated for an early to mid fall start with submissions to be accepted beginning in August on this site. As with everything else on Jammer Direct it is free to participate. This year's Single Search is going to be more online (remember our Unsigned Live shows in 480p) as well as more interactive to accomodate the bands wishing to participate this year. Last year's Single Search had almost 150 bands from all over the United States and Canada participate. This created issues in scheduling and marketing and we are taking extra time to better cater to the bands wanting to participate this year. We also are working on a few things that have never been tried before to continue to be the pathfinder of the market. The 4th Judge was our great experiment last year (29,801 votes total) and will return this year but we are going to remain quiet on the rest for now as to take this multi event past the cliched "battle" marker. With the number of "outside of market" bands that signed up along side the Fort Wayne area artists we feel this is something to be exploited as to bring every act involved on a more global level. Check out JamNouncements for more updates to come. You can also check out all of the Single Search videos for the last 2 years in JamMedia.
