Translink, the Oh Yeah Music Centre and Q Radio are teaming up for the Translink Sessions. The Translink Sessions aim to support local unsigned talent with a pretty heft prize for the eventual winner.
The competition will give successfully shortlisted acts the chance to perform a busking-style gig in one of Translink’s local stations in August, as well as a place in the line-up at the grand finale event on the 30th August at the Oh Yeah Music Centre.
The winning act will receive a prize package including £1,000; professional coaching and mentoring from Oh Yeah Music Centre industry experts; and professional recording studio time. Entry is simple, with the submission of an original song, themed around connections.
Charlotte Dryden, Oh Yeah Music Centre commented: “It’s a really exciting time to be involved in new music in Northern Ireland and we delighted to work with Translink once again to support local musical talent and promote the industry to a wider audience. There is a lot of undiscovered talent out there and Translink Sessions is a great opportunity to help kickstart someone’s career in music. The finale event will also be a fantastic opportunity to enjoy new, local music, so we expect tickets to be in demand.”
Entries to the competition are open until 14th July 2023 over on the Oh Yeah Music Centre website where you’ll also find full terms and conditions and further information.
