This is Lucas Alberg from OPB. I e-mailed you a few weeks ago about the opbmusic.org T-shirt contest. I wanted to follow up with you to let you know about a few more exciting details we’ve added into the mix.

First off, we’ve finalized our judging panel, which includes some noteworthy folks from the design and music community in Portland . Our guest judges include:
•      Chad Crouch - Owner of HUSH Records and musician who goes by the name of Podington Bear
•    Gary Houston - Respected designer and owner of Voodoo Catbox designs
•      Carson Ellis - Artist and Illustrator responsible for several famous Decemberists’ album covers, among other items
•    Adam Shearer - frontman for the Portland band Weinland
•    Mark Atherton - Designer and Illustrator for Ames design
You can read a little more about this on our site here: http://opbmusic.org/blog/entries/415-Update-T-shirt-Contest-Judging-Panel.

Additionally, as an added incentive to enter, we’re inviting all participating designers to a special in-studio music session at the OPB Studios with Portland-based band Horse Feathers. There will be a reception for designers beforehand and then we will announce the winner of the contest shortly before recording begins.

Thanks again for your interest in the contest and for helping to spread the word. If you have any specific questions related to these new additions, or to any other matter, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. And please feel free to distribute this e-mail as you see fit. Thanks!

Cheers,
Lucas
