MORECAMBE LIBRARY will soon play host to a female pop act who has been tipped for the top in 2010.
Daisy Dares You, who featured in the BBC's Sound of 2010 poll, which last year predicted Lady Gaga and Florence and the Machine as the next big things, will perform an all-ages show in Morecambe on March 19.
An award winning programme of live musi
c in public libraries that has seen artists as critically acclaimed as Adele, Bat For Lashes and Florence + The Machine cut their live performance teeth amongst the traditionally quiet bookshelves has been commissioned to be rolled out nationally.
Get It Loud In Libraries, formerly a closely kept secret to libraries in Lancashire, where the tiny stage has been stalked by such rock and pop heavyweights as The Blackout, British Sea Power and Juliette Lewis, is due to storm the UK's libraries bookshelves when talented 16 year old pop starlet Daisy Dares You steps out on a 6-date jaunt.
The project was conceived by Stewart Parsons of Lancashire Libraries to allow more relevant cultural access to libraries for young people who love music but don't necessarily use libraries, and is proving a popular original format for delivering the traditional library brief to entertain, inform and educate.
Ironically enough, the winner of the Sound of 2010 poll, Ellie Goulding herself plays the project later in April.
