A new BRELAND song, scheduled for release later this year, will incorporate real-life stories from fans, thanks to a collaboration with Busch Light.
Between July 23 and August 13, Busch Light fans across the United States can submit their stories or lyrics on Instagram by following @BuschBeer and using the hashtags #BuschRealLyrics and #Contest for a chance to have their stories featured in the songwriter and singer's next new song.
This contest is open to everyone, "whether they are teachers, farmers, aspiring musicians, or simply country-loving neighbors." Reminiscent tales and stories that were once shared over a cold beer can now reach the public through the art of music.
Contests like this create unique opportunities for storytelling and the music industry as they foster community engagement, and celebrate diverse experiences while enriching the creative process for artists, resulting in songs that resonate with authenticity and a broad range of listeners.
