NEW YORK, Feb. 28, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Dunkin' Donuts
and Z100 are calling all Metro New York area* musicians to show
their musical talents as part of the new Cold Brew Jams campaign.
Musicians, 18 years of age and older, are invited to record
themselves performing an original Dunkin' Donuts Cold Brew Jam
based on provided lyrics that can be downloaded at
www.DDNewYork.com. Musicians can enter their original take on the
song through March 26th.
All songs must contain original music and be no longer than three
minutes in length.
Three finalists will then be chosen to perform at the Dunkin'
Donuts Iced Coffee Lounge (DDICL) located at iHeartMedia Tribeca
Studios in New York. At the event,
a panel of music experts and Z100 talent will judge the finalists,
with the winner receiving $10,000
towards studio time and a $500
Dunkin' Gift Card.
Cold Brew Jams coincides with the launch of Dunkin' Donuts new
Sweet & Salted Cold Brew that features Dunkin' Donuts'
signature Cold Brew, sweetened with liquid cane sugar and a special
new, proprietary salted whipped topping, treating guests to an
irresistible taste combination of sweet and salty in every sip.
Dunkin' Donuts' Cold Brew Coffee is prepared by steeping a
special blend of coffee in cold water over an extended period of
time to extract a uniquely distinctive flavor from the beans. The
longer brewing process provides a rich, ultra-smooth coffee with an
inherently sweeter flavor reminiscent of dark chocolate. Cold Brew
coffee is crafted by hand in Dunkin' Donuts restaurants in small
batches and served each day while supplies last, offering another
exciting choice for those who prefer their coffee cold, along with
the brand's signature iced coffee.
"Dunkin' Donuts' Cold Brew Coffee keeps our guests energized
throughout the day and the new Sweet and Salted Cold Brew is sure
to be a hit," said Cathy Chavenet,
Senior Field Marketing Manager, Metro New York for Dunkin' Donuts.
"Speaking of crafting hits, we are excited to announce the Cold
Brew Jams campaign with Z100. The Metro New York area has always
been an amazing market for live music and this program is sure to
drive excitement amongst various musical communities throughout our
region. We cannot wait to hear the unique takes on our Cold Brew
Jam and look forward to hearing the finalists at the Dunkin' Donuts
Iced Coffee Lounge later this year."
"The DDICL at our iHeartMedia Tribeca studios has played host to
so many amazing musicians, so we're very excited to add to its rich
history by hosting the Cold Brew Jams finalists," said Joe DeAngelis, Director of Marketing and
Promotions from iHeartMedia. "Dunkin' Donuts is a great partner of
Z100 and this truly unique program will play amazingly well in the
New York market where so many
musicians have started their careers."
