BRITE WINTER fest set for February in Cleveland's Ohio City area, now accepting band submissions
BRITE WINTER fest is coming back in 2014. The growing music and arts and food fest –one of the, er, brightest spots of our Cleveland winters - will take place on Saturday, Feb. 15. The fifth fest will again take over Ohio City's Market District area.
The 2013 festival attracted 20,000 attendees, according to organizers, with 48 bands on seven stages. There were also 15 art installations.
This year, they hope to expand even more – and now's your chance to be a part. BRITE is accepting music submissions till November 18. Interested bands can apply at Sonicbids.com/britewinter, to fill the estimated 50 showcase slots. Past BRITE performers include The Floorwalkers, Thaddeus Anna Greene, The Lighthouse & The Whaler.
BRITE organizers also hope to expand the art portion this year as well, with 20 art installations, planned in conjunction with The Cleveland Museum of Art and the Cleveland Institute of Art. Said Plain Dealer reporter Michael Heaton of the 2013 BRITE fest: 'The Brite Winter Festival is easily poised to become Cleveland's answer to something like South by Southwest in Austin, Texas, or Bonnaroo in Manchester, Tenn.'"
