Perhaps since the original deadline was getting close and there were only about 17 entries and to give bands and artists some more time to add their videos into the mix, the folks at the Rochester Jazz Star contest have extended the deadline for submitting videos to May 14th. There were 20 up there at the time I posted this.
I've been watching some of the videos and there is a wide variety of talent from around Rochester, including some folks you see around town (and in my listings) and others you may not have heard of … yet.
The contest is brought to us by Rochester International Jazz Festival sponsor Xerox in conjunction with the festival. You can read more about the contest in my earlier post "Jazz
festival sponsor Xerox brings jazz 'Idol' to Rochester in Jazz Star
