\u2018IN HONOUR OF OUR LATE FRIEND, MOSELEY FOLK WILL BE FOLLOWING IN JANICE LONG\u2019S FOOTSTEPS AND SUPPORTING NEW AND UP-AND-COMING ACTS\u2019
\n– TEAM MOSELEY FOLK\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n
Our community was devastated to hear the news of Janice Long and her passing. We\u2019ll continue to remember her, most importantly, as an irreplaceable friend, but also her genuine love for supporting new musical ventures, helping them get off the ground without wanting anything in return.<\/p>\n
In her honour, Moseley Folk HQ, last year launched the Janice Long Bursary, \u2018Hello you!\u2019 – to make sure Janice\u2019s legacy still survives in spirit. Our first winner was rising star Louie Miles, who opened up the first-ever Janice Long Stage and will be returning this year to headline.<\/p>\n
With her insistence and determination to help and really support new musicians at the start of their careers. For so many, Janice was the first to play a new demo, the encouraging smile in the front of the crowd at early gigs and the key figure that got a new project off the ground. She just loved and lived music and that passion was completely infectious. This is why this bursary will be there to support up-and-coming artists, with the passion and infectious support Janice gave so many.<\/p>\n
This will mean one up-and-coming artist or band will be awarded a professionally written bio, artist photoshoot, Studio Time (2 x Tracks), Opening slot on the Second stage in 2023, and Headline slot for the second stage in 2024.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n
To apply, acts will need to send an email to helloyou@moseleyfolk.co.uk with the subject title JANICE LONG BURSARY, 1x Link to video (do not attach files), 1x Link to demo or released track (do not attach files) and a brief update on where the artist is in their career, plus how would this Bursary benefit the artist\/band.<\/p>\n
A mural has also been painted along the side of Maison Mayci, where we first met Janice at one of her favourite coffee shops, showcasing the legend Janice and her infamous line \u2018Hello you!\u2019 – a dominant space in Moseley where plenty of people will be able to admire and pay respects through years to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
