This coming Saturday and Sunday (August 6 & 7) a feast of celebrities and special guests come face-to-face with the UK and Ireland's finest unsigned music talent at the glorious Weald Country Park in Brentwood, Essex hosted by the Music Crowns Team. The unsigned music awards concept climaxes at the weekend with the unsigned talent from across the UK and Ireland sharing the audience and media attention with their established headline act counterparts.
The festival prides itself on being accessible to all with a variety of genres of music to enjoy, food and drink from across the globe available and a fairground and bouncy castle plus games and competitions for families with young children (under 8s go in for free).
The festival opens its doors on 12pm midday both days and finishes at 11pm with the afterparty at Eclipse Nightclub just off Brentwood High Street on the Ongar Road.

The Music Crowns Team are immensely proud of their achievements in such a short space of time (a 20 month existence) and continue to support unsigned acts across the UK and Ireland. Adrian Smith, co-founder of Music Crowns insists:- "There's a phenomenal amount of talent out there just waiting to be unveiled. It's a ferociously competitive industry and there are very few opportunities to showcase exactly what you can do to people with power. We hope our concept and the festival platform will allow the bands and acts that have made it there to make some big strides towards getting nearer to where they want to be - full time, signed, professional musicians."
