NEW YORK, NY, July 20, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- In anticipation of the July 28th airing of the Independence Day kick-off to the 16-base Mission One Voice Tour headlined by 3-time Grammy winning singer/songwriter Ne-Yo, Jam House Live has announced an unprecedented partnership with web streaming platform Big Live and ReverbNation, the leading online music community over 1.4 million members strong, giving a Reverb Nation artist the chance to win a spot opening up for the headliner on a future Mission One Voice Tour stop.
Mission One Voice (MOV) is a collaborative venture between Lerer Media and the Center for American Military Music Opportunities (CAMMO), a non-profit entity, formed to bring quality entertainment events to our troops, their families and the communities they serve. In addition to Ne-Yo, who headlines the kick-off event from Brooklyn's Fort Hamilton Base, previous headlining performers include R&B stars Monica, Trey Songz and Patti LaBelle, as well as acts from a diverse cross section of genres such as jazz, rock, country, and hip-hop, like Plain White T's, B.O.B,., and Lone Star. The MOV Tour travels to 16 military bases across the United States and abroad through 2012 with a Celebrity host, DJ, and a military artist opening for the headlining act.
Jam House Live has partnered with ReverbNation in a voter-driven promotion giving a ReverbNation artist the opportunity to perform at a Mission One Voice tour stop. "In furtherance of First Lady Michelle Obama's initiatives in support of military families, Jam House Live proudly announces its partnership with Lerer Media and CAMMO to bring the Mission One Voice Tour to the masses via the world wide web," states Darrell Green, Senior Managing Partner of Jam House Live. "We are honored to be able to participate in the efforts of MOV and CAMMO to say thanks for the sacrifices made on our behalf by the over 3 million active duty military personnel and their families. With the strategic partnerships that Jam House Live has in place with Big Live and ReverbNation, we not only will be able to bring awareness to the sacrifices that military families make for the betterment of all of us, we'll give the winner of our ReverbNation promotion the opportunity to personally say 'thank you' by performing for our troops at a stop on the Mission One Voice tour."
"ReverbNation is honored to be participating in this inspiring concert series," says Nathan Hoy, Vice President of Music. "We are always striving to find unique opportunities that allow our member artists to share their music with new audiences, especially when there is a philanthropic aspect involved. This concert is an exceptional chance for our members to say thank you to our country's servicemen and women by bringing the joy of music to them and their families and we are proud to be a part of the event."
