Next Gretsch Greats: Unsigned Artist Competition

Fred Gretsch Thanks for stopping by! Public voting in the Next Gretsch Greats Unsigned Artist Competition closed July 16, and the fans have spoken. Come back soon to find out which 10 artists -- out of the 850+ unsigned and independent artists from seven countries who entered -- received the most votes and will advance to the finalist round.

The 10 finalists will have their entry songs reviewed by a panel of judges including yours truly and longtime Gretsch friends Keith Scott, Stephen Ferrone and Chuck Leavell. We'll have the tough job of selecting the grand, first and second prize winners.

In the meantime, we invite you take a look around our anniversary website to learn more about the history of The Gretsch Company and stay tuned for updates on the Next Gretsch Greats Unsigned Artist Competition.

Thanks again for visiting!

-Fred Gretsch
