The Dowsing Sound Collective has its first ever LungJam event in the Cambridge Corn Exchange on Wednesday 1st April.

LungJam is part of the launch of Cambridge Live - the new charity being set up to run the Cambridge Corn Exchange, Cambridge Folk Festival and Cambridge City Events.  Starting at 8pm on Wednesday 1st April, with a bar open throughout, the gig is pretty experimental – think 800 voices in the audience belting out the tunes of some utterly brilliant tracks, accompanied by The DSC band and around 120 singers on stage for a bit of moral support.  The set list is cracking, ranging from Gnarls Barkley, The Clash, and U2 to Wild Cherry, Oasis and Elbow - it will be Cambridge, literally, live. 

As part of LungJam, The DSC is offering five talented Cambridge people the once in a lifetime opportunity to perform in front of a packed Cambridge Corn Exchange audience.  There are six songs to choose from (Sam Smith – Stay with me / Foxes – Holding onto Heaven / Elbow – One day like this / Robbie Williams – Let me entertain you / Amy Winehouse & Mark Ronson – Valerie / Stone cold sober – Paloma Faith) and the individuals that get chosen will have a chance to rehearse with The DSC band before going live.  

To apply, all you need to do is film yourself singing their chosen track from the above list, and send through the link to The DSC team using an online audition form which can be found here: www.thedowsingsoundcollective.com/ihaveavoice.  A shortlist will be drawn from all the online entries, and face-to-face auditions held for the individuals lucky enough to get shortlisted on Tuesday 17th March, with results being announced on social media the next day.

The deadline for applications is 5pm on Friday 13th March.  For full details, please see www.thedowsingsoundcollective.com/lungjam.
