The Ultimate Music Showcase (UMS) “Save the Music in our Schools Telethon”

We have custom-tailored the perfect Alternative Tour Market for the Hottest Indie and Unsigned Artists (as well as Dancers and Comedians) to perform in front of major record executives, A&Rs and top movers-and-shakersin the Entertainment Industry. Traditionally, artists would have go directly to New York, Atlanta, or Californiain order to get in front of major record label executives. Instead, we are bringing the Music Industry to various cities around the United States.

Each city will have an opportunity to showcase their best Unsigned Artists to major record label executives through a live, interactive platform, similar to American Idol and America’s Got Talent. We foster the ideal of showcasing two (2) performers in all musical genres, including, Hip Hop, R&B, Pop, Rock, Electronic Dance Music (EDM), Country, etc. We strongly encourage entrants in our special Dance and Comedy categories, because they have just as much chance of winning as musical acts and will play a major part in bringing the showcases to life!

The Ultimate Music Showcase Tour will be broadcasted live through U-Stream’s Live Pay-Per-View (in our case “Donate-Per-View”) Steaming Video Platform, in which the public will be able to cast their votes, based upon who they think is the “Ultimate Performer” of the night. The performer with the most votes will receive sponsored prizes, a possible major recording contract and be invited to perform at The Magus Awards Ceremony held at the Legendary Fox Theatre on Peachtree Street in Atlanta, GA. The winner will be crowned “The 2015 Ultimate Performer” at this “Gold Carpet Event.” Several major acts will then qualify within their region to join the Mega Concert portion of the National tour with celebrity artists to demonstrate why they belong there, as well as with the upper echelon of performers -- the Elite.

Celebrity guests and industry execs will accompany each and every showcase, as a panellist, judging performing talent in front of Live and Worldwide audiences. Additionally, they will take part in the prequalification process of the showcase, as each artist must go to theultimatemusicshowcase.com to create an “Artist” profile and upload their pictures,bios, music and / or music videos. Our anonymous panel of industry professionals will view profiles and choose the artist(s) they want to see perform at each touring city. Each showcase will have unique panels of professionals.

The Ultimate Music Showcase Tour acts as a multi-city telethon, in which up to $100,000.00 will be raised via dona-tions, including a donation button that remains active during each show, whereas our U-Stream viewers will be able to donate anything from $1.00 up to as much as they should so choose. This donation button remains active during each broadcast and beyond, prior to each monthly event and in honor of the local music program in each city’s school district.

Our aim is to “save the music in the schools” and keep alive musicianship by preserving the art form for our future generations. At the end of the show we will present a check to the school district for the amount of money raised for per presentation. Attendees will be able to download our mobile app, in which they may actively vote live and donate during each show.


The Ultimate Performer.What would they do with $100,000, A&R interests, Worldwide Exposure, PROMO OUT THE BOATLOAD, a National tour with a MAJOR LABEL artist and your WHOLE city behind them? This isn’t the lottery. This is their career! Don’t miss out on this opportunity to showcase The Music Combine’s UMShowcase “Ultimate Performer” of 2015!

Check this out:

Many will enter, only one will win during our sixteen city showcase tour. Per showcase, we are allowing two acts per genre to compete for the chance to move on to our final competition in Atlanta, GA and to be crowned “The Ultimate Performer” during our 2015 Magnus Awards Ceremony, where they will get “Gold Carpet” treatment and be highlighted in front of major label executives. Whether they are a musi-cian, dancer or comedian, they have the chance to win this award. And, it comes with many great perks!

As a competitor in our preliminary showcases, they are already gaining Global Exposure through our live broadcasts and voting platforms, not to mention what they gain as part of the artist database we are creating on our own website. On the website, they can create a profile that includes their Soundcloud, Youtube and ReverbNation embeds, judged by industry “movers and shakers” on a one-on-one basis. During the showcases, they will be broadcasted to entertainment enthusiasts Worldwide. Yes, we have an awesome plan of action to ensure the success of these broadcasts. And, yes, because of its structure, live interaction will be taking place during each event! Oh, and did we mention that A&Rs will be scouting at these events?

At the end of each night in the preliminary showcases, we will have awarded one winner, regardless of genre, that will move on to compete at The Magnus Awards Ceremony in Atlanta, GA. At the end of all sixteen showcases, we will have sixteen acts competing to be crowned “The Ultimate Performer” at that ceremony.


The Magnus Awards Ceremony will be a major event, because only the “best of the best” will be in at-tendance. This night will be magical for many reasons, including “The Ultimate Performer of 2015 Award.” This is the event that will not only give them, as artists, the opportunity to win $100,000 for themselves, but it will also make them the hero of the night as they win $1,000,000 for their local school districts in keeping music alive in public schools. Because of this, their whole city will love them… and they will be continuing musicianship through our next generations of artists.

To be clear, this isn’t EVERYTHING. This will be a privileged event. So, most of those in attendance will come prepared to network. MANY Record Label Execs, A&Rs and “Movers and Shakers” will be in the building. All eyes will be on those who have made it possible to compete for the title of “Ultimate Per-former.” And, it will be bliss once someone actually wins that cash prize, the support of their city and all this exposure… won’t it?

Do you remember when we said a little something about “touring with a major label artist?” We meant that. Winners will be going on tour with a selected artist and performing around the United States as their opening act! In addition to this, A&Rs of a few labels have already expressed interest in possibly awarded a record deal to talent in our competition! YOU HAVE THE POWER TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN. YOU have the power to make dreams come true. YOU have the power to change lives through the power of music education in the United States!

Not only will competitors and school districts gain from such an initiative, but you may also benefit through advertising, sponsorships, promotions, highlights, referrals and special seating. Take action NOW! Don’t miss out on your chance to be part of such a historical event in music and doing your part in bringing communities together, while saving music in public schools.


How it Works.Artists, Comedians and Dancers in sixteen cities will compete for a $1 Million jackpot prize that will be awarded to the school districts in their city. One artist from each city will go on to compete for the jackpot at The 2015 Magnus Awards Ceremony in Atlanta, GA, as a representative of that city. The artist with the most votes will, after their performance at the ceremony, win the “Ultimate Performer of The Year” Award, a $100,000 cash prize, a possible major recording contract and will go on tour with a major recording artist as an Opening Act! The city, itself, will be awarded with the $1 Million that is to be used within their school districts to save the music within public school systems.

There are only two (2) acts per showcase in each category genre (i.e. Rock, Pop, R&B, Country, EDM, Hip Hop, Reggae, Dance Group and Comedian) that will compete. This means that only eighteen (18) acts in each city will actually compete! Each act will get to perform two (2) songs. Comedians and Dance Groups, however, will be allowed 10 minutes in front of our “Panel of Music Professionals.”They will be critiqued based on:

• Overall performance• Style/Fashion Marketability• Songs/Song Choice• Commercial Radio Appeal

Our Worldwide viewers include Live Audience Members and Live Broadcasts from each venue around The United States. At each event, these viewers will vote for who they think gives the best performance in each prospective category. The artist with the most votes overall, no matter which category they per-form in, will win cash, prizes and the opportunity to represent their city at The Magnus Awards Ceremony to win the Jackpot Prize for the city’s school district music programs. Again, the artist celebrated at The Magnus Awards Ceremony will win $100,000 in cash for themselves, in addition to the pot they win for their local school district’s music program.


During the live broadcasts our broadcast viewers and live audience members will be encouraged to vote for their favorite acts via mobile app and/or on the web. Donate buttons will accompany the showcase and be found next to the broadcast player window on the right. These options will only be available during the showcase. The Ultimate Goal is to raise $100,000 per show during each of our sixteen showcases for each local school district’s music program. The Ultimate Music Showcase will present a check to partici-pating school districts at the end of each broadcast.

Artists that would like to participate in the showcase must go to: http://www.theultimatemusic-showcase.com

Registration is free. Artists will be able to create a profile, upload pictures, bios, music and music videos. Our “Panel of Music Professionals” will review and comment on your music and will pick, from profiles per each category, who they would like to see perform at each of the sixteen cities. Selected artists will receive an e-mail letting them know which city they have been selected to perform at. Competing artists will receive major exposure from our Promotional Campaigns and will perform in front of a Worldwide Audience via Live Web Broadcasts.


Get Involved.Predicted to make history, July 26, 2014 is set to commence a National initiative to save music within public school districts around the United States via live entertainment and through interactive participation from audiences around the Globe. The Ultimate Music Showcase is a sixteen city showcase tour that brings together music of all genres, comedy and dance in preserving music for future generations, while ensuring that musicianship continues to capture our histories and culture for those future generations. Music programs in our public school systems continue to be in danger as funding withers away due to cuts in educational allowances from Local and Federal Governments. The Ultimate Music Showcase Tour takes action in defending the need for music in early education and creating a means for funding to these schools without relying on economical allowances to do so.

On July 26, 2014, Another Visionary Production will bring The Ultimate Music Showcase to Chattanooga, TN, for a night of laughs, dance and excitement! Another Visionary Production, along with partnerships with The Music Combine and Shorty Produkshins, has been working extra hard to bring major corporationsand small businesses together in creating the “ultimate entertainment experience” that will focus onmusic education and allowing independent acts from all over the United States to shine like the starsthat they are!

The showcase acts as a telethon that will raise funds through sponsorship opportunities and donations from audience members all over the Globe. The showcase will take place at a major arena or concert hall in each city and will also be broadcasted live through U-Stream’s easy-to-use Pay-Per-View platform. Supporters may donate during or before each showcase but will be able to vote only during the showcase itself. It is through this voting and donation process that the showcase serves its purpose.

Donations are currently being accepted for the upcoming Chattanooga showcase. Sponsors and Supporters are also encouraged to get involved in the ground stages of the showcase. With support, music preserved in the educational system will encourage the youth to live by positive influence and raise a larger generation of cultured musicians that will in turn influence a better society and a better tomorrow.

A THANK YOU!On behalf of The Ultimate Music Showcase and the children of Chattanooga, we would like to thank you for your support and are proud that we can count on kind people like you to keep our public schools enriched in important programming, such as Music Education. Due to cuts in funding, many of our schools around the United States have minimized -- if not completely ended music programming, as well as other programs related to the arts!

Not only does Music Education encourage musicianship, but it also plants a seed of interest and essence for culture, which is important in keeping our kids off the streets and into other points of interest. It is imperative to realize that without Music Education, true musicianship may eventually diminish due to the lack of knowledge -- or even interest -- in using actual instruments and reading notes... which is easy to learn and to understand in Early Education. It is also essential in Early Education to allow for at least a basic knowledge of music theories and histories to guide the child’s mind in developing on a more complex level. This aids in the influence and understanding of other subjects also essential to a quality education, such as Foreign Languages, Literature, History, Algebra, World History and more!

Through our time on this planet, music is what has acted as the most important instrument in keeping our cultures and histories alive. It has been an asset in connecting our communities and creating peace with invading armies. It has molded and shaped the foundation on which we stand proud, even in the United States. Through Music, people were able to find peace in the most difficult times and through the worst hardships and battles in the his-tory of this planet. We wouldn’t want to see Music Education becoming a “extracurricular” class of “privilege.” Music should be loved, shared, and created by all! Quality programs allow for the development of a structured understanding of, not just the art of music, but also the knowledge of the science behind it. Unfortunately, even in schools that have music programs in place at the moment, there is still a lack of funding for instruments, books, tools, and most importantly -- TEACHERS! As part of the community, it is up to us to ensure that we give our children more. We can’t rely on legislation to spend OUR money where we would like it, so it is up to us to do so ourselves.

The Ultimate Music Showcase, Another VIsionary Production, The Music Combine and Shorty Produkshins thank you again for this gift you are given to our youth. We think it is important to remind the community that music can be fun and still exists at the grass roots level. July 26, 2014 won’t just be a fundraiser, it will also be a night of unity, community, laughs, dancing and... a demonstration for the love for our children, as well as a tribute to musicianship in this land! We are ecstatic that you will be joining us for a very special night in music!
