Want to play at OsFest?

Want to play at Osfest festival? Well now, you can, as Live and Unsigned has joined forces with OsFest to give opportunities for Live and Unsigned winners to play at the festival alongside some of the hottest acts in the UK and entertain the masses this Spring! 

The popular festival takes place on 27th-30thMay 2011 in Oswestry, Shropshire. Headline acts for 2011 are being announced thick and fast and already include massive acts such as Example, The Feeling, Tinchy Stryder, and Goldie Lookin’ Chain, as well as Live and Unsigned Tour favourites Missing Andy and Paradise Point.

Each year OsFest receives thousands of requests from unsigned acts from around the region and across the UK applying to play at the festival, but spaces are always limited. So for this Spring’s festival OsFest is working in conjunction with the Live and Unsigned competition to find two acts to play at the renowned event. Acts will be chosen from the Birmingham and Manchester Area finals to play a slot at OsFest, and the lucky winners will take to the stage in front of a crowd of thousands of music lovers.

Over 10,000 bands and acts enter the Live and Unsigned Music competition each year and compete to be named the UK’s best Live and Unsigned act. All acts in the competition are auditioned live which is what makes Live and Unsigned so unique, there are no demos or submissions.

 Those who are successful in the competition get to play at Live showcases and perform in front of industry judges, A&R associates and celebrity guests in some of the UK's most prestigious venues. Along the way there will be opportunities for bands to prove their mettle and get their hands on coveted OsFest slots.

 Chris Grayston, Events Director for Live and Unsigned said: “OsFest is one of the UK’s most respected live music events, attracting thousands of music fans and the best of UK and worldwide music.

 “We’re looking forward to including some fantastic unsigned acts to this line up and working with OsFest to unleash the hottest Live and Unsigned talent on Shropshire this May!”
