Good luck to Yeovil's Unique Faith

GIRL group Unique Faith from Yeovil are now just one step away from performing at The 02 in London after wowing the crowd and judging panel at the Open Mic UK Regional Showcase in Bristol.   

Olivia Macgregor, 13, India Lloyd, 15, and Katie Orwin, 14, known as Unique Faith, joined thousands of acts who entered Open Mic UK 2012.

The best unsigned singers from across the country were chosen to perform at the live Regional Final shows. Unique Faith performed in front of a live audience and professional judging panel in September. They ‘re now set to perform at the Area Final in Reading in early December for the chance to progress to the National Grand Final at The O2 in London on January 19, 2013.

They have already performed at The O2 in Last years competition of Live and Unsigned, where 50  supporters followed them on their journey. The girls have recently been accepted into BGM (Baby Girl Music) Academy in London where they are currently producing and writing their own songs.

Those who made it through the audition stage took part in a live Regional head-to-head battle alongside the best talent in their area.

Acts performed in front of hundreds of audience members and industry judges for the chance to grab a breakthrough recording contract.

A spokesperson for Open Mic UK commented “We are searching for an act that not only has the live ability to impress an audience, industry judges and A&R associates, but an act that has the potential to become a professional recording artist. Acts that have made it are just one step away from performing at the best live music venue in the country!”

The competition is divided into age categories; 16 and Under, 17-22 and 23 and Over; all types of singers, vocal performers, groups and acoustic singer/songwriters are invited to enter Open Mic UK.

There’s over £50,000 in prizes up for grabs this year and the overall winner getting significant investment. They’ll also have the opportunity to tour across the UK.

Unique Faith will be performing at various places around Yeovil but have been asked to open Westland’s Leisure Complex Firework Display on Friday, November 2.  

Studio time and development opportunities have also been given as prizes throughout Open Mic UK 2012 and that will continue in the Area Finals. The latter stages of the competition will also provide acts with the opportunity to impress many guests from record labels, agencies and the entertainment industry.
