San Diego, CA (Top40 Charts/ TalentWatch) "We're very excited about the new generation of singing competitions hitting the airwaves," says Gary Alan, founder of TalentWatch. "This creates more opportunities for so many talented music artists. In fact, we've been in contact with some of the show's talent scouts to help expand their talent pool. I'm not at liberty to share all the details. Let's just say, we're on their radar screen. We've got the perfect format for this, and they know it." TalentWatch is the only destination on the web where aspiring artists from all over the world can showcase their talent AND tell their story in an engaging and entertaining video-driven format. TalentWatch fans rate artists on their talent, entertainment and likeability, giving every music artist an equal chance to rise to the top. "I've always been a fan of "American Idol" and "America's Got Talent." I'm looking forward to the U.S. debut of "The Voice" and "X Factor" this year. I've heard great things about both shows. I know I'll be hooked, just like everyone else." The only knock on singing competition shows, like American Idol has been the questionable talent pool. According to Gary Alan, talent shows still represent a positive trend for the music industry. "Shows like Idol keep you engaged. The more entertained you are, the greater the likelihood of attracting a huge fan base, which is great for the artists. It's important to give music artists a chance to be discovered. We've taken it a step further with our site. Music fans as opposed to talent scouts or celebrity judges decide who deserves to be discovered. We've opened the door to emerging artists in every genre throughout the globe. This is the future- music artists get a fair shot and music fans decide who's got what it takes." TalentWatch has alliances with key players in the music and entertainment fields to help their artists get more exposure.
