About Me |
|
| Acoustic Idols is an annual event celebrating contemporary acoustic music and songwriting in Edinburgh. There's a period of voting / selecting by the acoustic club and open mike audiences of Edinburgh, culminating in a jamboree concert and awards ceremony.
BEST CD prize: 1 day's recording time at Windmill Sound 1st - Lindsay Sugden & The Storm - LINDSAY SUGDEN & THE STORM 2nd - Amy Duncan - STORY OF A GIRL 3rd - Norman Lamont - ROMANTIC FICTION 2 BEST SONG prize: Dunlop guitar accessories pack from Guitar Guitar 1 st - Lindsay Sugden - ON THE WIRE 2nd = Calum Haddow - FIRST AID 2nd = Lindsay Sugden - BERNARD DRAKE BEST SOLO ARTIST 1st, 2nd & 3rd prize: Edinburgh Fringe performance, The GRV Bar 1st - EMILY SCOTT 2nd - LISA PATON 3rd - BEN YOUNG BEST ACT 1st, 2nd & 3rd prize: Edinburgh Fringe performance, The GRV Bar 1st - LINDSAY SUGDEN & THE STORM 2nd = BROKEN LIGHTS 2nd = SPARRAHAWK BEST CLUB prize: Edinburgh Fringe club afternoon, The GRV Bar 1st - OUT OF THE BEDROOM 2nd - THE LISTENING ROOM 3rd - ACOUSTIC EDINBURGH and THE 2008 ACOUSTIC IDOL sponsored by The GRV ******* LINDSAY SUGDEN & THE STORM ******* Acoustic Idols aims to be a relaxed, friendly version of a competition. Yep, ultimately there's only one winner in each category but those people are there because local musicians and audiences like what they do. And loads of other performers get mentions and listings, and the awards concert is just an excuse for a great music night out, bringing together the overlapping circles of different open mikes and showcases. |
