The finals of the Big Break talent quest will be held in Kingaroy this Thursday night (March 8), and organisers say they’ll be something to see.<\/p>\n

“We have had an amazing roll up of extraordinary talent from around the region,” compere Michael Monk said on Monday.<\/p>\n

“We’ve also seen an eclectic mix of genres and styles, ranging from Hip Hop MCs, acoustic folk\/punk fusion, rock guitarists, pub rockers, country artists, and amazing a capella vocalists.<\/p>\n

“All our talent were well supported by friends and family.”<\/p>\n

Michael said the competition had also been a great opportunity for entrants to network with other musicians.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“From my perspective, this competition has served a number of purposes,” he said.<\/p>\n

“It has encouraged local aspiring artists out of the bedroom and onto the stage, and it’s also given the management at The Com Pub a chance to take a look at performers that we might like to offer some gigs to, moving forward.”<\/p>\n

The finals will be held in the beer garden of Kingaroy’s Commercial Hotel from 7:00pm, and this Thursday’s winners will be chosen by peoples choice and by a judges decision.<\/p>\n

Two acts from the finals night will be selected to join in this coming Saturday night to play support to Olivia Ruth (2012 Big Break Winner and a crowd favourite) along with her band at the hotel’s “Wine and Food” after party, which will start around 8:00pm.<\/p>\n
