THE Alresford Music Festival has launched an appeal for Hampshire acts to play at next year’s event.

Organisers are looking for a broad range of styles for the one-day show on June 18 at the Perins School playing fields.

Artists are being invited to send in demo CDs.

Festival talent manager, Brian Hayward, said: “We are looking to create an exciting line-up that will appeal across the board and engage both young people and their families.”

Demo CDs should have at least three tracks on them, along with the song titles and the band’s details.

They can be sent to AMF Music Review Team, 38 Stockbridge Road, Winchester, Hampshire, SO23 7BZ.
