Latest 7 has hooked up with Unsigned Band Review (UBR) to offer users of the Latest Brighton Chart a fantastic opportunity.

Unsigned Band ReviewUnsigned Band Review (www.unsignedbandreview.com) is a site that bridges the gap between musicians and the music industry. On 11 March they are holding a showcase gig at the Prince Albert – and one of the bands playing on the night will be selected from among the most successful acts in the Latest Brighton Chart’s history. The winning band will also receive upgraded membership to the UBR site.

In addition, up until March, the Number One artist each week on the Latest Brighton Chart will receive a free industry review from one of Unsigned Band Review’s panel of professionals, which includes big movers and shakers in the fields of A&R, production, PR, songwriting and marketing, including reps from NME and Warner. Oh, and the guy who signed Duffy.

Also up for grabs are free single release packages with Zimbalam, which will get your music released and available to buy on iTunes, Amazon, Tesco online, and hundreds of other online stores.

All you need to do is sign up to Unsigned Band Review at www.unsignedbandreview.com (registration is free) and continue to submit your music at www.thelatest.co.uk/7/music-chart.

Latest TV

» Brighton Lights 31

Our new programme for thelatest.tv sees Juice FM presenter Guy Lloyd investigate all manner of things. He starts off with chart-topping band The Hoosiers who were mega-successful a couple of years ago, were dropped by their major label and have become fashionably independent. Their chart-topping album cost £1 million to record, their new album £100 and we reckon it's just as good. We have exclusive footage of this new record. Guy does crazy-golfing with them, checks out their sound-check and witnesses the fans' adoration of the band at Audio in Brighton. In future shows Guy will be doing waxing, Dot Cotton, air guitar and needs your suggestions for more crazy things (or people) to do. Send to bill@thelatest.co.uk

» Artists Open Houses

AOH Special: It’s Festival time in Brighton & Hove, which means the Artists Open Houses have opened their doors for another year! Maps of all the trails can be picked up across the city. We love nothing better than browsing and buying arts and crafts, and there is so much going on throughout May that we’ve made it easier by bringing the Artists Open Houses to you! We have 11 special programmes, featuring artists in their own houses. So here’s your chance to go ‘through the keyhole’ so to speak as we visit the artists in their own environment.
