The deadline to apply for Indie Week Ireland 2011 is now just over a week away. The winners get themselves a partially-paid trip to play in Toronto, Ontario and headline Indie Week Canada in October. See [link]http://www.IndieWeek.com[/link] for more details.

Indie Week tells us: "Performers who have been a part of both Indie Week Ireland and Indie Week Canada (winners and non-winners alike) have found that the festivals not only boosted their profile in their home country and gave them invaluable experience performing in a foreign market, but also allowed them the opportunity to meet and build relationships with the festival’s music-industry judges who, in some cases, have become instrumental in the growth of their careers and future touring opportunities.

The deadline to apply is Friday, January 21. To enter, go here: [link]http://www.sonicbids.com/indieweek[/link].
