It’s one of the most coveted prizes in the industry—and Rolling Stone is putting the power to bestow it in your hands. For the first time ever, Rolling Stone readers will choose who graces the cover of our magazine.
We’ve picked 16 unsigned artists from different genres and corners of North America. In a tournament-style elimination, you will vote and narrow that list down to 8, then 4, then 2 (who will play the Bonnaroo Festival in June), then a lucky winner, who gets to be the first user-picked, unsigned cover subject and will get a recording contract with Atlantic Records.
With great power comes great responsibility. Wield it wisely. Check out music and information about all 16 artists and rate your favorites on RollingStone.com.
