Showcase your talent at Letham Nights #31
On Saturday 17th August 2013 we are proud to present the amazing Devon Sproule as our headline act at Letham Nights. This will be yet another momentous occasion for us and we feel very privileged that an artist of such outstanding quality will be performing for us.
What’s more, we want to share the moment with our local young musicians by offering them the opportunity to open the show on the night. So here is the deal:
We are looking for a high quality, young, confident act to open the show with a set of 20-30 minutes at least partly made up of your own material.
If you are interested in this opportunity to showcase your talent at our highly-regarded venue in North East Fife, then all you need to do is send us a sound clip or online link to your music (e.g. Soundcloud, Reverbnation, Bandcamp) together with 50 words (max) on why you should be selected.
In return you will receive a fee to cover your expenses and get the chance to share the stage with one of the most talented musicians to emerge on the folk/roots scene in recent years.
Devon Sproule – Canadian-born, lives in Virginia US – burst onto the UK scene in 2008 with stellar performances on Later with Jools Holland and at the Cambridge Folk Festival. She has had rave reviews in the music and mainstream press including this from Rolling Stone:
“Perhaps the sweetest and most honest folk-pop album recorded this year. Sproule’s vocal and lyrical beauty is unmatched.”
Seriously, this is too good a chance to miss!
