By: Gold Coast Arts Center Once a month, the Gold Coast Arts Center becomes the GOLD COAST ACOUSTIC CAFÉ, a music venue that showcases local up-and-coming talent as well as established music acts. With its black box theater performance space and a lounge in the art gallery complete with a cash bar and refreshments, the GOLD COAST ACOUSTIC CAFÉ is one of the few small music venues around which makes for a special and intimate atmosphere for artists and audience alike, especially during YOUR BIG BREAK- a competition whose past winners include Youth Be Told, Katie Zimmer and one of this year’s headliners Annika, as well as finalists SEE and Zofolk who have gone on to work with major producers, managers and agents! Past artists who have performed in the headline slots have included: Iridesense, John Hampson of Nine Days, The Brady Brothers, and Sir Cadian Rhythm - all of whom are local musicians who have had some success in the business to further inspire the next generation of New York stars presented each year. And now with Gnarly Karma and Annika joining the ranks, they’re sure to add their own abundance of skills and experience to this year’s search!
