AugustanaThe "Artist of the Month" feature over at Xbox Live is a result of the year-long agreement of Microsoft with Epic Records. The program gives members access to exclusive HD entertainment content from today's stars. Previous artists featured include Cartel, The Fray and Audioslave. The list becomes even more exciting this October as Microsoft goes with the young band Augustana.

The five members of Augustana hail from different locations all over the country but they are more known as the band from Greenville, Illinois. This former college band is thrilled to be this month's chosen pick. "Being the Xbox Live ‘Artist of the Month’ is a great opportunity for us to play against and chat with our fans around world," shares vocalist Dan Layus.

Xbox Live members can download three free Augustana videos which include "Boston," "Boston Live Performance" and "Stars and Boulevards." Select Xbox Live Gold members will also have the opportunity to play with the band during the Xbox Live's "Game with Fame" 90-minute session.

» When will I see real influential music.

When will I see rap and since they are listened by at least 50% of the usa music industry consumer, don't it make sense to see it in AOTM at about even 10% of the time? So BIAS, shame on you Microsoft.



By the way I'm from Boston, so good luck guys.
