HARMAN’s JBL Professional is pleased to announce JBL EON ONE Take UK, a major new competition giving the UK’s best unsigned singer/songwriters the chance to showcase their talents and be in with a chance of winning some amazing prizes, including a day’s recording at London’s Strongroom Studios with Grammy Award winner and producer Steve Levine.

Open to all residents in the UK over the age of 18 and unsigned to any record labels, we want to hear an original song and performance. There’s a slew of great prizes on offer, with the ultimate winner receiving a JBL EON ONE Portable PA system and a day of recording and mixing with Grammy Award winner and producer Steve Levine at the iconic Strongroom Studios in London. There will be plenty of AKG microphones and headphones up for grabs for runners-up so don’t miss out!

How To Enter
Entrants simply need to visit eononetake.uk (opens in new tab), register and upload an original song performed by themselves that is no longer than three minutes in duration, consisting of a vocal and single instrument track. The song will then be uploaded onto the contest wall and the entrant will have their recording hosted on their own competition page. From there it can be shared across social platforms to obtain as many votes as possible.

Qualifying For The Live Phase
The top 40 voted entries will win an AKG P5i microphone and move through to the live phase of the competition. Qualifiers visit their chosen local retailer to record their song live in “ONE TAKE” in the EON ONE recording pod. 

Each performance will be filmed and uploaded to the competition site, where the song will be judged by an elite panel including producer Steve Levine and Russell Deeks, Editor of Songwriting Magazine.

The Winners
The judges will select 10 runners-up, who will receive a pair of AKG K702 headphones, and one Grand Prize winner who will receive the ultimate prize of a JBL EON ONE Portable PA system and a day recording and mixing with former BPI Producer of The Year, Steve Levine, at the influential Strongroom Studios in London.  

Some of the world’s leading artists, including Radiohead, Bjork, ALT-J and London Grammar have recorded at Strongroom.
