Established in 2006 and backed by parent company Bodog Entertainment, Bodog Music is an independent international record label and the architect behind the worldwide $1 million Bodog Battle of the Bands contest.
The progressive label features a diverse and growing roster of talented artists from hip hop artists like DMX and the Wu-Tang Clan to punk-pop rocker Bif Naked, alt-rock quartet Neurosonic, world beat songstress Nazanin, and fresh talent like the 2006 Bodog Battle winners, Fall From Grace. The label is also a leading European distributor of major motion picture soundtracks including Resident Evil: Extinction, Saw III, and Academy Award winning Little Miss Sunshine.
In addition to supporting current artists, Bodog Music actively seeks out new talent through the Bodog Battle of the Bands program. This global search for today's best unsigned talent offers winners a $1 million recording contract with Bodog Music. The Bodog Battle program features innovative multi-platform promotions including hundreds of live shows in major cities across the globe, an innovative online and interactive presence, and a reality television series airing on major networks.
With offices in the U.S., Canada, Europe and the U.K., Bodog's trademark aggressive marketing approach affords its artists the opportunities of being on a major label, while its independent status gives bands the individual attention and support they need to succeed in the mainstream music world.
The Bodog Entertainment family offers a host of entertainment services including Bodog TV, an international television production division which produces television series such as Bodog Fight, Calvin Ayre Wild Card Poker, Calvin's Sharks & Fools, and the Bodog Battle reality TV series. Bodog Fantasy delivers fantasy sports to its online audience, and the Bodog publishing division features online magazine Bodog Nation and the Bodog Beat blog. Founder Calvin Ayre is recognized as a world authority on branding in the digital entertainment industry, and was featured on the cover of Forbes magazine's best-selling "Billionaires" issue in March 2006.



Online entrepreneur, jetsetter, industry leader and philanthropist, Calvin Ayre is the personification of a new American Dream. Establishing new standards in excellence and creativity, he has been the principal driving force behind the transformation of the Bodog Entertainment Group into a recognized digital entertainment brand.
