T-Break Selection Stage for TITP 2013

Hello hello! Sorry for the delay of blog posts on here - I have been very busy with various tasks to do for college, one of them being my Graded Unit and the other was helping organize our end of college show!

Recently I have been listening to literally hundreds of bands as part of the "T-Break" selection stage for T in the Park 2013.

T in the Park has a "T-Break" tent at the music festival each year which is set up for a group 16 unsigned music acts to come and play.

My lecturer David O'Hagan sent my class a spreadsheet containing over 1000 bands that we were to listen to and to choose our favourites from.

Even though it took me a good number of hours to listen to all the bands I was given and choose my final 5 to give to my lecturer, I really enjoyed the experience. It was a great way of discovering bands that I had never heard of before and since then I have been able to see a couple of the bands live! 

After being a part of the "T-Break" Selection Stage, it made me realize that I would really enjoy doing something like this again, and has made me interested to go into the A&R scene once college/university is over.
