• Michigan Rock Band Mahoney Win Make A Star Best Music Video 6 Contest
• Author:Ben Yater

Make A Star's 6th Best Music Video contest and its $100 cash prize went to Southeastern Michigan duo Mahoney and their video for the hard-charging power pop choon ¡®Turn Off The Lights and Turn On The Stereo¡¯.

Directed by former Open Mic talent contest comedian Marty Stano, the hilarious video sees the dynamic duo performing a high-energy aerobics routine in some very 1980s outfits.

The band brought out a strong crowd of fans, many from their home state, and that support combined with high judge scores all around helped Mahoney open out a big lead on their challenger, South African rock band 12th Avenue, and their video for ¡®Over The Edge¡¯.

Mahoney's music is a solid rock and roll recipe, with the hard edged, angular simplicity of The White Stripes and an ample sense of fun and humor. Add a brilliantly directed music video by a proven comedian to the mix, and it all adds up to two guys from Southeast Michigan becoming the 6th winner of Make A Star's $100 Best Music Video contests. Who will be winner number 7? The action is set to launch next week!
