Hot news for all budding musicians,

ACOUSTIC IDOL COMPETITION

We have already had a lot of musicians enquire about the possibility of playing a slot at the festival. Because of the limited number of acts that we can book there are only a very small number that get the opportunity to perform. This often means that some great new/overlooked talent gets missed in the program.

This year we are giving a chance to all bands from duo upwards to:-

a. perform their 2 best numbers from their repertoire and get exposure throughout the festival community

b. get instant constructive advice to your band/repertoire/sound straight from the panel of expert judges.

c. win the cash prize.

d. confirm a paid slot on the main stage of nexts year festival.

There will be 10 finalists that will perform at the live stage on Sunday 15th August 2011.

We will look at technical ability but there will be an emphasis on entertainment value.

We will need to confirm all the applicants in advance including their 2 chosen numbers and stage maps.

Please email me for more information and to submit your application for consideration. info/application

Keep an eye on this site or join the mailing list to be kept up to date with acts as they are confirmed.

As much as BAMF is a great chance to hear some formidable music, it is equally an opportunity to participate. Many aficionados, of all standards, come with their guitars, fiddles and double basses; all over the campsite pockets of musicians will be found pumping out their favorite standards
