In July, IARecords, IAR’s indie record label, released its highly anticipated The Next Level 3 album.

The Next Level 3 features IAR student bands and vocalists who participated in The Next Level New Artist Competition which took place at Arlene’s Grocery.

IARecords would like to thank IAR students and artists Rick Warren, Foundation, Midway, Danielle Parente, Kevin Depot, the Sean Carolan Project, Jeremy Schindler, Chris Reck, and Malcolm Young for their contributions to the album. Thanks also go out to IAR instructor and engineer Dan Grigsby and assistant engineer Clinton Jones for producing, recording, and mixing the album.

Stay tuned for the upcoming Next Level New Artist Competition on September 26th at Arlene’s Grocery, when IAR student performers will compete for a $1,000 Disc Makers package, a track on The Next Level 4 CD, performance photos, web space on IARecords, and air play on IARadio.
