Original Music Showcase Week 1 2011

The Original Music Showcase is exactly that, a showcase. 30 bands perform a 45 minute set of original music. A panel of industry judges rate the bands on some specific criteria. The top 3 placing bands will be awarded opportunities to further themselves. It is the Blind Beggar Pubs mission to focus this showcase around band networking, constructive feedback, and positive growth for bands and the music scene in Calgary.

The first showcase went off with out a hitch. Starting off with the rock cabaret of the Doom Kitties and moving to punk rock performed by Vendetta Skies. Burlap Sac took us home with their unique fusion of hip hop meets folk/funk.
