We See Lights Win The Chance To Play At Isle Of Wight Festival 2008
Scottish rock band We See Lights have fought off competition from across the country to be crowned the winners of this year's BT Battle of the Bands contest, earning themselves a coveted spot playing the main stage at the Isle of Wight Festival 2008 in association with BT. The seven-strong Edinburgh group triumphed over nine other up-and-coming acts from across the UK in the national final at the BT Tower in Central London.
BT, the primary sponsor of this year's Isle of Wight Festival, hosted the Battle of the Bands contest to give the UK's hottest new musical talent a once-in-a-lifetime chance to perform in front of thousands at the Festival this summer. The 3-day festival takes place in June 2008 and will include performances from the Sex Pistols, The Police and Ian Brown.
We See Lights will be following in the footsteps of rock greats including The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix and David Bowie, all of whom have appeared at the legendary festival. The band impressed the panel of music industry experts, including Starsailor vocalist James Walsh, singer Arno Carstens and Isle of Wight Festival organiser John Giddings, plus Gavin and Stacey star Mathew Horne.
