Full line-up revealed for IMRO showcase

Glasgowbury have secured the IMRO Showcase for a second year running giving five local acts a chance to fight it out for a place at the 2010 final.

In association with the G Sessions, Glasgowbury were the first group to take the annual showcase out of the city last year and have confirmed another monster line-up for this year’s event.

The date and venue had previously been announced (Cellar Bar, Draperstown on Saturday 17th April) and now the five lucky golden ticket winners are out.

In 2009 the event was up for grabs to Here Comes The Landed Gentry, We Are Resistance, Furlo and Skruff .

In 2010 it will be up to Building Pictures, Silhouette, Pretty Child Backfire, The Q and LaFaro to lead the charge for local talent.

In securing the showcase for the second year running, Paddy Glasgow said it was an honour to bring IMRO into the local community to sample a selection of the country’s finest musicians.

Doors for the event will open at 8pm and admission is £5.
