Green Poll Finals Tonight, 8th July 2010, at The Monarch

Green Man Festival's search for the band to open the festival, Green Poll, is coming to a conclusion tonight at The Monarch in Camden, London. 5 bands will battle live in front of four judges from the industry; John Pearson from BBC6 Music, Stephen Bass from Moshi Moshi records, Simon Raymond from Bella Union, and Phil Alexander from Mojo will pick the band that will open this year's sell out festival.

Green Poll developed by us, Imperial Leisure, is now in its third year and, this year, attracted almost 700 bands. Any band can enter the competition, and anyone can vote for the band they would like to see in the finals.
