We received dozens of incredible submissions in our #MyBloodyPairing contest, and the time has come to award the pedal-head prize. Our in-house experts whittled the field down to five worthy finalists, and the winner has been decided by your votes. So, without further ado...
Congratulations to our grand champion Yair T. from Israel who gazed their way into your hearts with their take on "What You Want" from Loveless.
Yair will be receiving $500 in Reverb credit to use toward purchases on Reverb and Reverb LP, as well as the title of #MyBloodyPairing Champion.
Our runners-up will all get $50 in Reverb credit. Here they are again, in all their shoegaze glory:
Thanks for playing (literally), and we'll see you next season with a fresh lineup of Potent Pairings pieces!
Thanks to all who participated in our #MyBloodyPairing contest. We were so overwhelmed and pleased by your renditions of My Bloody Valentine classics and we’re feeling very (bloody) inspired by your pedal prowess.
In what may very well be the most difficult decision we’ve ever made in our collective lives, we have selected 5 worthy finalists based on the criteria presented in the initial contest announcement.
Now it’s your turn to select your winner. Check out the video submissions from all five finalists, then scroll down and vote for your favorite at the bottom of this page. The poll closes at 11:59 p.m. CST on August 23rd, 2018, and a winner will be announced on August 24th, 2018, so don’t delay!
