    Sam Makes Live and Unsigned Semi Finals

    About

    Samantha Sanderson or 'just Sam' as she likes to be called is a singer songwriter hoping to follow in fellow bristolian Beth Rowleys footsteps after gaining a place in the UK 'live and unsigned' Semi Finals. Competing against hundreds of auditionees on the day and over 10,000 nationally, Sam has now been given an opportunity to prove that she is the best in the region. Those who made it through the auditions will now take part in a live head to head battle in front of hundreds of audience members and a professional judging panel to win a place in the next round. Live and Unsigned is a national music competition for unsigned acts to compete live. With over 10,000 registrations in 2008 it is the biggest music talent search for original acts in the UK. Live and Unsigned’s popularity comes from its reputation for encouraging originality. The acts taking part are commended for doing their own thing; being individual, original and performing their own genre and style live! One contestant who has evidently caught the judge’s eyes is local talent Sam Sanderson, who is now competing for a place in the National finals with the possibility of grabbing that break through recording contract. The winners will be thrust into the media spotlight through television, radio and the press and furthermore all winners will all be invited on the UK Live and Unsigned Tour. The tour involves as many as 100 gigs across the UK including the chance to perform live at some well known festivals. Last year’s winners, Kiddo 360, have already gone on to win an award at the Vodafone Live Awards in October of last year, alongside the likes of The Ting Tings, Primal Scream and Kate Nash. Sam made it through the auditions in Bristol amongst hundreds that queued patiently for their turn in front of the Judges. Sam is now preparing for the Live stages where she will compete amongst other hopefuls in their Live show on the Sunday 26th April 2009 at St Georges, Bristol for a place in the Area Final on Sunday 3rd May 2009.
