The place was packed with fans who love all different styles of music and showed great appreciation for every act. Eight acts took the stage with six guaranteed to win a positions in the contest. However at the last minute the Judges decided to add two special consolation prizes meaning every act was a winner.

First and foremost let us please emphasize the fact that there are NO LOSERS in this event. For all of us, it is THE MUSIC we all love to create and play that binds us together.

We feel honored to have met each and every one of you.

This coming year marks the 4th anniversary of HitStreet Records/Shortler Studios and is also the year we will be starting construction on our new studio, which has been our dream from the beginning. We want all of our new friends to be the first to record and play in that facility and we will keep you informed of it's progress.
