Hi
I hope this is of interest!
 

THE FOLK FACTOR

Search for a folk star

 

Folk is definitely the new ‘cool’ and at this year’s Rochester Sweeps Festival we are looking for some new talent!

 

Singers, duos and bands are invited to come forward for a five minute performance in front of a panel of three judges: Joe Stead (ex recording company and folk agent), Simon Evans (BBC Radio Kent/Radio 4) and Jo Tuffs (Director of Broadstairs Folk Week).

 

The winner will receive a day’s recording at Ranscombe Studios in Rochester, a slot of Simon’s Folk programme and a concert appearance at Broadstairs Folk Week in August.

 

Venue: Visitor Information Centre Auditorium, 95 High Street, Rochester – Saturday 29th April 3-5pm

 

Register for a five-minute acoustic spot: julie_dot_doherty_at_medway_dot_gov_dot_uk or phone Doug Hudson on 01634-574837
