TEENAGE RAMPAGE ANNOUNCES SUMMER TOUR 2010!
Teenage Rampage is kicking back into gear this summer with a unique tour for 2010…
On 25th and 26th September 2010 Teenage Rampage will take over a stage at the fast growing Bristol Festival taking place on the harbourside right in the centre of the city.
8 young acts chosen from across the South West will get the chance to perform on the Bristol Festival Teenage Rampage stage and will be joined by Teenage Rampage bands from 2009 plus some very special guests.
The 8 acts will be chosen from regional heats to be held across the region through July and August, stretching from Cornwall to Gloucester and all the way down to Bournemouth.
Look out for where your local heat is!
Each heat winner will get a mentor from industry, a day in a recording studio, a track on the Teenage Rampage Summer Tour 2010 CD, and appear in the Teenage Rampage Summer Tour 2010 film!

A BIG THANK YOU to all the bands, apprentices, crews, tour managers, mentors, filmmakers, Ben and BBC Blast and all partner film org’s, and of course parents for making the Rampage Summer 09 tour so very special.
Teenage Rampage aims to identify, support, develop and network young under-19 musicians across the South West region.
In Summer 2009 we ran the Teenage Rampage Summer 09 Tour to find 5 young bands to play at the Colston Hall in Bristol as part of their new foyer launch celebrations on 19th Sept.
The weekend after, 26th and 27th September, Teenage Rampage took part in the Count Me In Celebrations for the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad.
We have made a film that took in some of the sites for the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad in Bristol and Plymouth, and at the Eden Project, featuring The Naturals and The Orkid. We also put on a show at Mr Wolf’s with The Naturals, the Orkid, Terrible Strangers, In Your Honour and Social Flatline.

Teenage Rampage aims to identify, support, develop and network young under-19 musicians across the South West region.
Focusing predominantly on two ‘tours’ each year, the project runs a series of seminars, workshops and educational and skills development programmes for young musicians.
Run by the Bristol Music Foundation and the South West Music Forum, Teenage Rampage builds on the existing work of sub-regional community music organisations and provides a joined-up offer to such community music, and formal music education work in the region and a specific link to regional and national music industry specialists and programmes.
Teenage Rampage aims to give select young bands and musicians the opportunity to experience being part of a tour, to interact with other bands from the region, to gain experience of and mentoring on the different aspects of live music, the music business, and touring, to promote themselves via CD and merchandise sales, and to collect names for their mailing list.
