Music Gear Zone Acoustic Competition 2017

The Music Gear Zone Acoustic Competition for 2017 was held at Northwood Crusaders Sports Club in Durban North. It was organised by C-Weed Entertainment Promotions.

The main prize was a slot in the White Mountain Music Festival on the 28th to the 30th of September 2017.

Fortunately the judges like my brand of music, folk-pop and I won.

In addition to the amazing slot at White Mountain Music Festival, I won a twelve string Washburn acoustic electric guitar and other equipment valued at R15 000.00.

It’s very exciting to get the guitar. It will mean a new skill to learn. Fantastic.

If you can make it to the festival you should.

White Mountain Music Festival

One of the most important day of my musical career, and my life in fact, is the White Mountain Music Festival, sponsored by Music Gear Zone and organised by C-Weed Entertainment Promotions.

It takes place from the 28th September 2017 to the 30th September 2017

The venue is the stunning White Mountain Resort, near Giants Castle (See Map)

My slot is at 11AM and lasts an hour, that’s a fair number of songs, considering each song is around 3 minutes (about 15 songs with a bit of a gap between them)

This will be the biggest audience, by far, that I have played to. I am looking forward to it but with some trepidation.Melanie Nash Music - White Mountain Music Festival

At the moment I am collecting my thoughts, choosing my songs and practising. Practising a lot! The fear of failure is big!

It is pretty difficult to decide the songs to play. Do I use my existing material or do I write more. To write more though is a gamble, but I think I will write at least one new for the festival. Maybe about my getting to it and the excitement and fear the goes along with it.

Some of the songs under consideration are

No Way Out

Like Water

Wasted

and some cover songs

Take On Me
