WHAT IS ACOUSTIC ROTHERHAM?

There’s nothing like pinching someone else’s good idea is there? And that is exactly what we have done.
While digging around Myspace for promotional ideas for The Rawmarsh Mashers we came across the concept of a Hiring Fair.
      THE LANTERNS
Loftus Acoustic have been running Hiring Fairs on a monthly basis now for sometime, and with some success, with no fewer than twenty or so acts getting GIGS as a direct result of an appearance.
As we travel around the Rotherham area, making appearances at Folk Clubs, Open Mic Nights and Session nights we see a lot of talent, all deserving of a wider audience. We also hear a lot of moaning about a lack of opportunity by acts to showcase their music.
It’s also the case that many acts are simply shy, (a sin not levelled at The Mashers I’m not afraid to say), and for many reasons hate the idea of self promotion.
The idea of the Acoustic Rotherham Hiring Fair is to give local talent (we take a broad view of what counts as local )a chance to showcase their talent. The only condition is that it has to be acoustic music. Keyboards allowed, but NO BACKING TRACKSThe MUSIC HAS TO BE REAL AND LIVE. (Great slogan)
  TAYLOR MAID
Since it's formation Acoustic Rotherham has developed and now has many facets beyond the Hirning Fair. 
This is what it's all about.....................

Acoustic Rotherham works on a number of levels.

 

1. We aim to encourage more musicians and artists to come out of their back bedrooms to SHARE their music with a wider audience, by participating in the wealth of Folk Clubs, Open Mic Evenings and Jam Sessions that currently run in and around the Rotherham and Sheffield area.

 

2. Through the quarterly Acoustic Rotherham HIRING FAIRS we provide artists from around the Country with a platform to showcase their material, develop their performing skills and promote them selves in the South Yorkshire Region.

 

3. To encourage YOUNG PEOPLE to take part in live music events and develop their performing skills.

 

4. Through the pages of the Acoustic Rotherham Web Site provide Folk and Live Music Audiences with a ready reference to where the best LIVE MUSIC GIGS are happening, and provide a general News Service.

 

Our News Page also carries syndicated National News and News from all the Major and Minor Festivals.

 

5. Provide event PROMOTERS with a one stop reference to some of the top semi pro and pro talent in the Region, for contact and booking.

 

6. Provide PROMOTERS with a tailor made show through the ACOUSTIC ROTHERHAM ROAD SHOW service.

 

7. Help artists to PROMOTE themselves using the tools available via the Internet. Artists have free access to advise and E Books that help them get the most out of Myspace, Facebook and Reverbnation and the rest.

 

8. To promote Folk and Acoustic Acts via our REVIEW SERVICE.

 

9. Offer a home for other LIVE PERFORMANCE AND WRITING ARTS like poetry and prose.

 

10. To wherever possible to offer these services FREE. ACOUSTIC ROTHERHAM RELIES UPON DONATIONS AND SPONSORSHIP TO SURVIVE.

 

11. PROMOTE CONCERTS of live music.

 

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO TAKE PART IN THIS PROJECT FOR ACOUSTIC MUSIC IN ROTHERHAM THEN PLEASE MESSAGE OR EMAI  acousticrotherham@jmucreate.com
