On December the 26th there will be no new edition of TalentCast, so this is our last program this year. This is why there is something extra in it for the artist or band who wins this week's voting round. We will feature the winner not 1, but 2 weeks on the main page of our website. So, artists, this is an extra reason to gather as many votes as you can.

We also have some news: On January the 4th we will host our 5th album listening session. Again, it will be an open listening session. You are invited to become one of the first people in the world to hear the second full album of the Canadian band Ophelia Syndrome. The album is titled North Sea. You will find all the details on our album listening session page on this website.

Last week we contacted some of our artists and bands to invite them to upload their newest songs to TalentCast. Some of them sent us some new music in response. Today we will play some of these songs.

The crew of TalentCast wishes you: merry Christmas, happy new year and happy holidays!
