Thame Town Music Festival 2018 Songwriter’s Competition Finalists announced

Thame Town Music Festival are delighted to announce the 10 finalists of the 2018 Songwriter’s competition who will be performing their entries live at the Festival Final in Friday 13 July in The Barns Centre, Thame Oxon. Festival Director, Johnnie Littler said: “We received over 50 entries with some fantastic quality songs covering a wide range of styles and subjects. It has been hard to whittle it down to ten but the panel felt that this list showed what a breadth and quality of song writing talent there is waiting to break through.

The final is going to be a fantastic night showcasing this talent and all are welcome to come and watch and support the artists starting at 7:30. I’m especially pleased that due to the incredibly generous sponsorship from Christopher Ward, the British watch company, who passionately believe in supporting emerging talent and challenging established thinking that the event is FREE ENTRY to everyone.”
