Three stunning girls from east London and Essex are making their way in the tough old world of music by qualifying for the impressive Open Mic competitions and will now be performing at the live showcases of Open Mic UK 2011. Pretty Lies from Essex have been given the big thumbs up by judges. Open Mic UK 2011 is the exciting national talent competition which searches for the UKs best singers, singer/songwriters, rappers and vocalists of all genres who perform either covers or original material.
Pretty Lies, who recently won ‘The Brickyard’s Got Talent’ competition hosted at The Brickyard Bar & Grill in Romford, have evidently caught the judge’s eye and are now competing for a place in the National Final at The O2 in London and the chance to grab a breakthrough recording contract.
Thousands of hopefuls entered nationwide with those who made it through the audition stage now taking part in a live Regional head to head battle alongside the best talent in their area. They’ll be performing in front of hundreds of audience members and a professional judging panel to win a place at the National Grand Final.
Chris Grayston head of Future Music comments “we are searching for an act whose live performance will impress an audience, industry judges and A&R associates, and who has the potential to become a professional recording artist. The standard was high last year and this year looks set to be even better.”
The competition is divided into age categories; 16 and under, 17-22 and 23 and over; all types of singers, vocal performers, groups and acoustic singer/songwriters are invited to enter Open Mic UK. There’s over £50, 000 in prizes up for grabs this year and the overall winner of Open Mic UK 2011 will be offered a recording contract, with up to £30, 000 investment! They’ll also have the opportunity to tour across the UK.
