The City Podcast needs theme music and you should create it

b"We've been doing this podcast for over four years now and through it all, good episodes and less-good episodes, we've never had a real honest-to-goodness theme song. In a city that features the overabundance of musical talent Spartanburg has, this is a tragic oversight, one that we now plan to rectify. How? By doing what any community-focused, eminently entertaining, deeply nerdy local podcast would do: crowdsourcing our theme music. That's why we're kicking off a contest today to write our theme song. The rules are simple: the song must be original, must be at least one minute in length, can be any genre, can be instrumental or vocal, and must not contain profanity...because we're a family-friendly podcast. The contest starts today, and the eventual winner (who will likely be selected by a distinguished panel of local government bureaucrats) will receive $300 and a link in the text of every podcast we post as a way of saying thanks for the wonderful music. Interested? Great! Entries must be submitted by March 31 in either MP3 or AAC format and must be sent by email to"
