Former X Factor winner and gold-selling artist Sam Bailey is visiting Torquay in May on her 2017 Sing My Heart Out Tour, and is looking for an up and coming performer from the region to open her show.

This is an incredible opportunity for an artist looking to gain some recognition on their way to success, and hopefuls can apply online.

For one night only, the lucky winner will take to the stage at Torquay’s Princess Theatre on Saturday, May 6 to open Sam’s show.

To be in with the chance of securing this incredible platform to get their name out there, hopeful solo artists or groups must submit a video of themselves performing to [email protected] and each applicant must include ‘Torquay’ in the email subject box to be considered.

Sam’s own journey from humble prison guard to star of screen, stage and sound is well-documented, and she is never shy to admit that her success wouldn’t have been possible without the boost the X Factor gave her. Not one to forget her roots, Sam has offered upcoming artists on each of her 32 tour dates the break that could see them on their own way to stardom.
