HOTH HEADING FOR HAIGH
ELIAS.T.HOTH are absolutely over whelmed and extremely proud indeed to announce that they have been selected from more than 70 North West bands to be in the final 12 line up which will perform live at this years Haigh Hall 2009 Original Music Festival Sunday 5th July.
The band said they were simply stunned by the news officially announced by Elias to the rest of the band after last weeks Saturday nights gig! “After some hysterical loud screaming by bassist Cy Dark at the initial shock of the news” said Lead Guitarist Sam Barnett, “it’s all taken rather a little time to sink in and really get to grips with the idea and concept of performing at such a high profile and prestigious event”.
“What is important now” continued Sam “is that the band are now becoming increasingly focused on the gig and above all are now looking forward to giving the Haigh Hall audience the very best of our unique home grown, tell it like it is, hard edged, hell fire, rock and roll” !
“The Haigh Hall event is of National if not an International Standard and comparable with many other major music festivals throughout the UK and Europe and will certainly be one of the many highlights so far in the Elias.T.Hoth 2009 calendar”! Attendance at the event is expected to exceed more than 10,000 people this year possibly the biggest in the history of the festival to date!
Many bands and artists have gone on to greater things in the past including 2008 Haigh Hall Festival participant local girl Laura, who only just missed out on the following years X factor final.
The festival is a high profile event organized and run by local the Wigan Borough especially for local original bands, who will be performing a diverse array of music including all kinds of original metal, blues, soul, rock and pop to name just a few of the varied styles that will be on show. The organisers are unanimous about all the bands original submissions the statement made by the selecting judges was beyond doubt that they were all ‘top quality stuff’ and the very best available on the original local music scene today!
