A few weeks ago we announced that we were teaming up with AUGUST BURNS RED drummer Matt Grenier for one hell of a drum contest. We asked junkies to submit videos of themselves performing a drum cover of "Carol of the Bells." There were over 85 submissions and, Matt personally picked the winners. Without further ado, here is the winner and the two runners up for the contest…
The Killer Grand Prize of (1) Zildjian Oriental Trash China and (1)Truth Custom Bubinga 14" x 6.5" snare drum is Parker Scholz. Here is what Matt had to say about this entry followed by the actual video…
12 year old Parker Scholz reminds us that drumming is about incorporating one's originality into passionate drumming, amazing!
First runner up, and winner of an August Burns Red t-shirt and a copy of their 7" release "O Come O Come Emmanuel" is GFSRocker7. Here is what Matt said about his entry plus the video..
The most point on cover of this song I've seen to date. A hard hitting drummer with precision!
Second runner up, who also wins an August Burns Red t-shirt and a copy of their 7" release "O Come O Come Emmanuel" is Cory Beaver. Here is what Matt said about him:
What to even say about the creative 'treatment' of this video. I want to hang out with this kid!
Congratulations to the three winners and thanks to everybody who participated in this contest! Check out all the entries at this location.
