Here they are, the seven finalists for the Source Weekly/Far From Earth Films music video contest. For those not savvy to the contest: here’s how it works. The band or artist whose song receives the most votes will win a music video shoot from Far From Earth Films. The runner up will win a $50 gift certificate to Steve’s drum studio.
A panel of judges who evaluated the 16 submissions we received on recording quality, song structure and the ability of the song to transfer to a music video chose finalists

So take a listen to the tracks below and e-mail mike@tsweekly.com with your favorite. You’ll notice we omitted the band and artist names — hey, we didn’t want this to turn into a popularity contest. Only one vote per e-mail address will be counted, so don’t get all spammy on us. Voting ends on 1/28 at noon.

UPDATE: We’ve noticed a bunch of people trying to vote through the comment function. These comments will not be counted as votes. As mentioned above, please send your vote to mike@tsweekly.com.
