The Big Gig

The Big Gig 2011 - Be the first to see the big names of tomorrow

Following an astonishing response to the Big Gig Competition the judges who included; Heather Brown, of Cardiff Council and Darran Smith, formerly of Funeral For A Friend had the onerous task of choosing one winner from the 6 hugely talented acts that made it to the final.

The winner who will play live at the Admiral Cardiff Big Weekend on 7 August is…. Ffred Jones.

Up and coming singer Songwriter Ffred has already appeared on BBC Introducing and 6 music. Using unusual instrumentation, his great voice and beautiful songs have a haunting quality reminiscent of a 21st century Nick Drake.
