Well the last few weeks we have been inundated with so so many applications for Music Day, we can hardly believe it! A staggering amount have been sent in…and they just keep on coming. I don’t think we’ve ever had as many! What a great response, we’re really chuffed that so many people want to play at the festival- but it’s not suprising as it is such an amazing day! So thank to all those bands who have taken the time to apply- and so professionally too!
Just a reminder to those of you who want to play but are yet to hand your applciation in- we need it by Monday 2nd March please! Yes that’s this coming Monday! We sadly can’t accept any after this date as the Music Day commitee are soon to meet up and sort through them all. Applications are available from the downloads page and we need a CD, band biog and tech spec- and remember it’s open to DJs and solo artists too!
Thanks for reading- see you all at Music Day- 5th July , Midday in Christchurch Park.
