Congratulations to Brenda Chunga, who took the stage and took the prize in our beta-test Everyday Style photo contest! Many thanks to her really cool competitors whose pictures graced the showcase, and another dose of thanks to Caramel Boutique for stepping up to sponsor the contest. We appreciate that! Keep those camera phones ready and keep your eyes OnStage. We’ll be back with another contest and great sponsor early next month.
Check the featured video (actually, check all the videos in our Video Showcase) and keep an eye out for The Rising Suns. The band has been around since 2007, playing at spots like The Rock N’ Roll Hotel, The Velvet Lounge, and at Howard University’s homecoming. They’ve got a beautiful blending of genres including hip-hop, soul, and rock and roll. The Rising Suns are planning to release their first EP, titled Rock N’ Flow Nation on Valentine’s Day this year. Hit their site, www.risingsuns.fourfour.com, for more information. Want to see them participate in our OnStage Showcase competition? Let us know!
