GYPSY IDOL 2010 (Sunday 1st August)
Every year we get many inquiries for possible performance slots at the festival. Because of the limited number of acts that we can book there are only a very small number that get an 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 GJ community
b. get instant constructive advice to your band/repertoire/sound
c. win the big cash prize TBA
d. confirm a paid slot on the main stage of the 11th IGGF next year.
There will be 10 finalists that will perform at the live stage on Sunday 1st August 2009.
We will look at technical ability but there will be an emphasis on entertainment value so don't feel you have to out gun Stochelo to shine!
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 here and be kept up to date with acts as they are confirmed.
As much as IGGF 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 can be found pumping out their favorite standards.
