During the Awards off-season, OC Music Awards is dedicated to promoting local music and providing beneficial industry opportunities for local bands. On June 21 OC Music Awards teamed up with Orangecounty.com to check out Railroad to Alaska’s Vans Warped Tour experience at the Great Park in Irvine. Railroad to Alaska won four California performance dates on Vans Warped Tour as part of the 2012 Showcase Series Best Live Band prize pack. The orangecounty.com video team and Awards host Piper caught up with the band after their set to talk about how it feels to be a part of Vans Warped Tour for a second year in a row and what’s coming up next. Check out the video online at Orangecounty.com and on the OC Music Awards Youtube channel.
