But first, check out the prize package for this event.

And you'll pick up your award at Remix Hotel, the event that brings together leading artists and music technology, in New York this June.

About the Band

The Terms formed in Baton Rouge, LA, where they are currently attending Louisiana State University. Their musical relationship found its spark when Ben Labat (vocals/guitar) met lead guitarist Clyde Hargrove and percussionist Blake Oliver. The acoustic trio played at local college bars and quickly gained popularity within the campus circle. Joined by fellow students, drummer Scott Lasseigne and bassist Greg Chiartano, The Terms as we know them today, emerged.

The band developed a unique sound through driven back-beat, textured vocals, and haunting rock guitar, and soon began packing houses throughout the Baton Rouge and New Orleans thriving club scene. Their popularity attracted the attention of Maple Jam Records who with the help of Grammy Award winning producer Greg Ladanyi, (best know for his work with Jackson Browne, Don Henley, Toto, The Church, Fleetwood Mac, Warren Zevon and David Lindley), immediately signed the band.

After signing with Maple Jam Records, the band was immediately flown to Los Angeles to record their debut album (produced by Ladanyi) “Small Town Computer Crash,” at the legendary Capitol Records recording studios. The nostalgia is unmistakable as they recorded tracks in the same room as timeless greats including Frank Sinatra, and The Beatles, as well as contemporary artists Green Day, Everclear, and Oasis.

The Terms continue to perform live throughout the South, continually expanding their fan base, while still working to finish their college education. For tour dates or additional information you can visit their website at www.thetermsmusic.com.
