O’NEILL’S LAUNCHES SOUND OF SUMMER COMPETITION

04/07/2017

O’NEILL’S IS HOSTING A COMPETITION TO FIND THE NEXT BIG THING IN MUSIC – AND YOU’RE INVITED!

If you love discovering new acts, hidden talent and listening to live music, O’Neill’s Sound of Summer is your chance to do just that.

This is the ultimate nationwide battle of the bands, coming to a venue near you. One band will win an incredible prize package including £6k, a slot in the Jaegerhaus at a UK leading festival, as well as enough precious studio time to record their first big hit.

They could be following in the footsteps of a number of other superstars who have performed at various O’Neill’s venues throughout the UK and you could be there to witness this brand new talent emerge.

Huge names such as the Rolling Stones, Fleetwood Mac and Rod Stewart have performed at the Wardour Street venue. What’s more,  it was the backdrop to David Bowie’s MTV video ‘Blue Jeans’, as well as the recording location of Georgie Fame’s the Night train.

Catch O’Neill’s Sound of Summer competition at venues nationwide until 16th July and regional semi finals in Liverpool, Birmingham, Cardiff, Reading and London between 20th July and 10th August.

The grand final will be taking place at Wardour Street on 24th August.

Tara Dolan, General Manager of O’Neill’s Wardour Street said: “O’Neill’s has a long tradition of giving bands their first break on the live circuit and we want people who love music to come down and support our competition – they may even get to witness the next big thing on one of their first gigs on a live circuit!’
