Boosweet Records the independently owned and operated label based in
California since 1999, recently created history in the country of
Argentina with its “Guitar Power” guitar competition. The “Guitar
Power” program is the brainchild of award winning guitarist/producer/
actor and label CEO Vernon Neilly, and Marcelo Roascio who is a
partner with Laura Goldar in Todo Guitarra Y Bajo Magazine, the major
guitar/bass publication in the Argentine market. Vernon has traveled
the world not only as a solo artist, but in the past has worked with
legendary artists in the entertainment business. “Guitar Power” was
held in the city of Buenos Aires and was sponsored by Boosweet
Records, Todo Guitarra Y Bajo Magazine, Seymour Duncan, Xotic Effects,
Morley Pedals, Giannini Strings, Tecniforte Cables, Antitodo Guitar
Straps, and Guitar Global LLC. 10 finalists were selected to perform
live before judges at the historic Bauen Theater in Buenos Aires from
multitudes of entries that were received from all over Argentina. The
winner Chowy Fernandes received an all expenses paid recording
contract with Boosweet Records, as well as gear donated by the
sponsors. There were also second and third place winners who received
products from the sponsors of the event. Major media outlets in
Argentina supported the historic making event such as video channels
MTV, CME, and powerhouse Rock & Pop 95.9 radio located in Buenos
Aires. Vernon also did countless interviews with major press
supporting the “Guitar Power” event. This historical event was a huge
success and will be continued due to the attention Boosweet Records
and Neilly garnered for the event. This was not the first time that
Vernon Neilly and Boosweet records partnered with major brands in the
music world. Previously he was recognized for his “Six String
Extravaganza” contest with label CEO and guitar icon Steve Vai.
