Allen Americans News Release
ALLEN, Texas - The Allen Americans are searching for national anthem artists for the 2010-11 season that is set to begin Oct. 15 at the Allen Event Center.
"We're looking for people that are energetic. The national anthem is a prelude to the game, and a well-performed song gets the crowd pumped up," Americans Director of Marketing and Promotions Randy Cumberland said.
Appearance, style and energy are taken into account. All prospective national anthem clips must be 80 seconds or less in length and performed a cappella. Bands, choirs and talented individuals of all ages are encouraged to participate.
Those interested can email a sound file and any relevant background information to randy@allenameircans.com. Hopeful singers can also send CDs or DVDs to 200 E. Stacy Road Building 1350, Allen, Texas, 75002. Deadline for submission is Friday, Aug. 13. The Americans cannot return audition submissions. Please make a copy for your files.
Season tickets for Allen's second season are on sale now. Ticket prices start as low as $9 per game with free parking at the Allen Event Center.
The Americans, the Dallas Stars' CHL affiliate, began play in November of 2009 in the newly built Allen Event Center in The Village at Allen. Season tickets are on sale now, and corporate partnerships are also available. For information, call 972.912.1000 or visit allenamericans.com.
