The six winners won't be getting a permanent spot in the band, but they will get to play with Kutless, live, at one of six summer music festivals. The grand prize winner will also win an autographed custom PRS Guitar.
To enter the PRS Guitars Invites You to ROCK THE FESTIVAL with KUTLESS promotion, entrants need to post a self-produced video of themselves playing guitar to the Kutless song, “Somewhere in the Sky” to YouTube.com.

Each of the six finalists will be filmed playing live on stage with Kutless for “Somewhere in the Sky” and the tapes of those performances will be posted at www.myspace.com/kutlessprscontest at the conclusion of all the festivals for 10-day public voting period. The grand prize winner will receive the PRS SC250 guitar, autographed by the band and valued at more than $3,000. Runners up will receive various prizes ranging from a PRS SE Custom to Kutless/PRS apparel.
