YORKSHIRE County Cricket Club is encouraging talented unsigned Yorkshire bands to send in their music and become part of the club’s official soundtrack to the 2010 season.

The club is looking for music of all genres, from classical to rock, easy listening to indie, to reflect the highs and lows of a Yorkshire cricket season. All entrants will receive two free tickets to a Yorkshire match at Headingley Carnegie Cricket Ground in 2010 and the chosen music will be featured in the club’s online activity throughout the year. Any music featured will be fully accredited and links provided to the band's website or social networking page. Send a CD and band info to James Buttler, PR and communications manager, Yorkshire County Cricket Club, Headingley Carnegie Stadium, St Michael’s Lane, Leeds, LS7 3BU or email your music to comps@yorkshireccc.com.
