VOTE FOR YOUR AUDIENCE FAVORITE
The audience-favorite TasteBreakers Music Contest is back in 2022 as the Proteus Festival Music Contest! The contest, featuring emerging and early-career musical artists, is hosted in 3 stages: Submissions, Audience Voting & Finalist Selection, and the Finalist competition concert.
The five finalists, including your audience favorite, will perform live in concert at Proteus Festival, where the winner will be selected by a panel of music industry professionals. The 2022 winner will headline a concert in the Live at The Z Music Series and win a recording package in The Z’s own recording studio! Play your part in picking the music stars of Proteus Festival 2022, then see them live in this dynamic concert hosted on our mainstage!
HEADLINER: JASON CALE
Blending New Orleans funk, blues rock, jazz fusion and R&B elements into a musical gumbo, The Jason Cale Band creates a style all its own. Full of heart and soul, the music is inspired, dynamic and tasty, reminiscent of the fearless musical offerings of the late 60’s and early 70’s. The band has performed both nationally and internationally, but will always call Hampton Roads “Home.”
YOUR 2022 FINALISTS:

Scott McMahan

Proteus Festival Music Contest Finals will be on Saturday, October 8, 2022
