Words First Mans Band
The scene is set for a battle of the charts - Men Vs Boys.
ManBand Finals
The final audition for the worlds first mans band will be held in Birmingham.
The 15 Minutes agency launched the ManBand project as a reaction to the
constant flood of boy bands dominating the pop charts.
An ad for male performers over 50 years old attracted over 5,000 applicants
from as far away as South America and Australia. The first audition, held in
London last month, was filmed by national and international news crews.
The final audition will be held at Ronnie Scotts club in Birmingham on
Saturday 19th May. The audition, which will be broadcast live over the
internet, will decide the members of the worlds first mans band.
The audition will be judged by Roy Hemmings (of The Drifters), Kim
Dolphin (singer and mother of Richie from boy-band 5ive) singer song-writer
Cliff Nash (married to Maizie Williams of Boney M) and royal artist Sharon Gee.
15 Minutes director Kizzi Nkwocha said: The world-wide response to ManBand
has been phenomenal.
The band will make musical history and perhaps
change the way the record industry views older performers."
