Music Contests Essex- Results from Regional Final!
Music contests Essex, such as Open Mic UK, have discovered the best unsigned singers in the region.
The 2011 Essex regional finals for the music contest were held on Sunday 2nd October at Basildon’s Towngate Theatre. The Regional final brought together the best unsigned singers from Essex and the surrounding areas all competing in a bid to make it to the Area Finals in November. The competition was fierce, and the standard was extremely high, well done to all the singers for putting on a great show!
With so much talent it was difficult to make the decisions, but well done to the following acts who will be performing at the Area Final on 27th November 2011. Click on the winners below to view their winning performance footage. More footage from the competition is viewable on the Open Mic UK MUZU channel.
There is one more place up for grabs in the Area Final which the remaining acts from Essex can now compete for. The wildcard vote is now open and footage for the acts can be seen on MUZU, so get voting for your favourite to help them win that final spot!
