Sara Lindsay Wins Superstars Songwriting Comp by By Brianne Galli
Lakewood, CA singer-songwriter Sara Lindsay has been named the winner of the Superstars Songwriting Competition sponsored by Cakewalk, Intel and OurStage.com, with her song “Best Of Me.” The $10,000 grand prize is being awarded to Lindsay on January 6 at the Intel Experience Pavilion at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, NV. Lindsay was chosen as the winner among 5,900 artists that submitted 13,000 songs. Artists sent in their original work starting July 2010, covering rock, pop, country, singer-songwriter, urban, and Latin. From there, over 200,000 fans cast their votes, whereby the top 20 songs from each genre were submitted into the Intel Superstars Finals Competition. Those voted into the top five of their genre received $50,000 in prize packages. Selection of the grand prize winner was decided by a panel of six judges including Kristin Bredimus (Director Of Community And Content, OurStage.com), Bruce Tyler (Former EVP, Sony Music), Mike Rivet (Intel Corporation), Jimmy Landry (Artist Relations, Cakewalk), Jason Jordan (VP and A&R, Hollywood Records) and Rev. MOOSE (VP Of Content, CMJ Network).

Get Lyrical: A Song For The Lovers by EmilyCassel on February 16, 2011 in Features
Chances are you fell into one of two categories this Valentine’s Day: the happy lovebird whose adoring significant other showered them with gifts, or the bitter loner who spent the evening acting like you weren’t even aware it was the 14th. Luckily, there’s music on OurStage for both groups. So whether you’re still basking in the glow of your perfect Valentine’s date or working on your fifth pint of Ben and Jerry’s this week, Get Lyrical has your back. For the Lovers: Sara Lindsay’s “Best of Me” Songs about love are sometimes so sugary sweet that they end up being nauseating, but on her track “Best of Me,” Sara Lindsay successfully embraces the sappiness. “How do I put to words what I’m feeling? I know it’s so cliche,” she admits. But she doesn’t apologize for being in love, singing “When I’m with you I can’t stop laughing, and people keep asking why I’m so happy.” As a bonus, her sweet lyrics are paired with a lighthearted melody that’s guaranteed to make you smile. And while “Best of Me” borders on cuteness overload with its plucky guitar and charming lyrics, the track is totally endearing. “You put a song in my heart, though the chords are simple and bold,” Lindsay sings. We just want to thank her for translating those chords into an adorable love song.

California Songstress Performs At CES And Wins$10, by Ourstage Magazine Interview w/ Sara Lindsay
Lindsay not only walked away with $10,000, but also the opportunity to perform at the Intel booth at the international CES conference in Las Vegas. The experience gained her some new fans, some of them from countries around the world. Check out the interview with Lindsay below where she talks with OS about music technology, her performance, getting new fans and much more… OS: CES is a huge consumer electronics conference. What was it like bringing live music to that kind of event? Was it an unusual performance atmosphere? SL: I had never heard of the CES conference until this year so I had no idea how big it was (I was later told around 140,000 people) or how well a music performance would go over at an electronics event. I figured people were there to see computers and not a singer/songwriter they had probably never heard of. Though, either way I was still super excited! I was however, pleasantly surprised! I got to perform twice a day at the Intel exhibit and every time it would draw a huge crowd. People loved it! I think it was a nice change of pace amongst the craziness to get and listen to some music and relax for a bit. It was so fun to see people enjoying themselves. OS: Can you comment on how technology plays a role for you as a musician and for other musicians out there? SL: Technology these days is especially important for musicians! From one aspect you have all the music software now that essentially lets any musician do most of the work themselves. To be able to have things like Cakewalk and other creative programs makes having a home studio so accessible. Not to mention just about the only way to reach and acquire fans today is through technology. Social networking has changed the whole way the world functions but even more so the music world. It seems like in order to survive as a musician you need a Web site, iTunes, Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, email blogs, YouTube… the list goes on and on. It is a great thing to be able to get that kind of exposure yourself but sometimes it has to make you wonder…. how did The Beatles do it? OS: What were the reactions of some of the people who stopped by the booth? SL: I got a lot of good feedback. I wasn’t sure how it was going to go since it didn’t appear to be my usual demographic but they loved it! I had people asking for the next time I was playing and we had people showing up three or four times. I was able to sign the Intel DVD’s after each performance and the response was always overwhelming. It was so fun to connect with so many people that I probably wouldn’t have without this experience and in such a short amount of time.
