New York, NY (Top40 Charts) As a musician myself, it's inspiring to hear from people who have similar passions in music and the arts and to learn how they have managed to become successes through practice and determination.
For many aspiring musicians, the thought of going from recreational player to professional player seems unreachable, but
Music & Arts and
Pearl Drums want to change that. The companies announced an exclusive giveaway of a black and gold sparkle finished
Pearl Export Series drum set (valued at $1,100 MSRP) along with $2,500 to spend on
Pearl merchandise.
"We love it when we can connect musicians with opportunities that help them grow their craft," said Skip Wilson, senior integrated marketing manager for
Music & Arts. "Having a legendary and passionate partner like
Pearl Drums helps us give our customers the best opportunity for musical greatness."
In addition to the sweepstakes, several
Pearl artists featured in this month's edition of
Music & Arts' The Vault offer their perspective on what it takes to "go pro." The new blog series from
Music & Arts includes tips and insight for budding musicians looking to learn how to take their music skills to the next level.
"Pearl
Drums was gracious enough to provide us with artist interviews from several of their brand ambassadors which offers our customers better insight into what it takes to make it in the industry as a percussionist," said Wilson. "As a musician myself, it's inspiring to hear from people who have similar passions in music and the arts and to learn how they have managed to become successes through practice and determination."
