The Winner of The Ocean Comp finally announced
We would very much like to congratulate not one winner but two winners.
That's right the winning entry was a duo.. A huge congratulations to Jon Selfridge & Jarrod Spurrier both from Baltimore, MD, USA
John was really impressed with their original approach to the song as well as the competence in which they played. He liked heaps of others but felt this was the best combination of originality and skill.
The Guys will be invited to meet John Butler for a half hour jam backstage during JBT's tour with G love and The Special Sauce in August. Plus as that is a long way away we will be sending them both a copy of the limited edition vinyl version of Grand National. At a recent Burma relief concert auction one of these beauties got $4400!
As some people have been asking the top 5, we present you with the top 7 favourites in no particular order.
Thank you so much for your patience for this compettion. We apologise for how long it took. No excuse, we will be sharper for the next one!!!!
Congrats again Jon and Jarrod.
best Philip Stevens, on behalf of John.
