Taco Bell Using Free Music To Pimp Their Food

04/23/2009
. (Submitted News) For the last three years, Taco Bell has been hard at work feeding bands on tour as part of their Feed The Beat program. Last fall 100 of these bands participated in the "Best Of the Beat" competition. Fans voted on their favorite bands and the top 3 went on to become the winners of the program.

Taco Bell re-launched www.feedthebeat.com and is currently offering free MP3 downloads from the winners of the program. Some of the winners invested their winnings into recording new music while others opted to go different route. Regardless, the singular mission was clear for Taco Bell, work to help expose the public to the best in new music.

Go to www.feedthebeat.com and download brand new songs from Hit The Lights and Thousand Foot Krutch as well as get a free download from Fireflight. Also, next time you head to your local Taco Bell for some eats, be sure to read up on the bands on the sauce packets.
