478 Sings United is Central Georgia’s local singing competition that brings local singers, bands, and musicians together in a virtual, social distancing tournament to raise funds for Central Georgia’s COVID-19 Response and Recovery Fund.
The event will celebrate and recognize the great musical talent in Central Georgia while helping meet community needs growing out of the COVID-19 crisis. The virtual singing competition and fundraiser is for local bands and musicians. The Grand Prize winner will receive $2,500, plus perform at the opening Mercer Bears football game on September 12th as part of the 2020 Ford Mercer Concert Series, and record a track at Capricorn Sound Studios in Macon. The competition will be organized in a single elimination bracket tournament [like March Madness] organized by a selection committee. The bracket and first round match-up dates will be announced April 19th. The winner of each match-up is based on the number of votes in the United Way fundraiser. Each $1 contributed counts as one vote, with all funds going straight to the Central Georgia COVID-19 Response and Recovery Fund. All money raised during tournament voting will benefit the Central Georgia COVID-19 Response and Recovery Fund.
To vote, visit www.unitedwaycg.org/sings. The first round is broken up into 4 regions running April 20th-May 3rd.
