Sligo Sounds, Sligo's Got Music

Sligo Sounds, Sligo’s Got Music

Performance

Sligo’s Got Music is a collaborative music initiative by Ballygawley Music Festival and Ocean FM. Its aim is to provide musicians in County Sligo with opportunities to develop their work and showcase their talent. This year eight acts will be selected through an open call to perform live on Ocean FM’s Seamus McManus Show from May 2026. A judging panel representing all partners will choose a winner, who will receive studio recording time and perform live at the Ballygawley Music Festival on 16 July 2026.
