The Riptide Movement advance in Tiger Untamed

The Mullingar-based competition kicked off last night in the new music venue in the Anne Brook hotel, where 24 finalists will take to the stage over the coming months to see if they can't nab themselves the whooper €20,000 Tiger Untamed prize package.

Heat two featuring RedTwelve, Preacher's Son, Peakin' Trippers and Take The Money And Run takes place on March 26.
