Back for a second consecutive year, the Fast Track to FIB Heineken competition is once again offering one act the chance to perform at this year's Benicássim festival in Spain. Promoter Vince Power, has teamed up with creative community www.supajam.com to find Europe's newest super-group.

A careful selection process follows (see below) before the final five bands battle it out at a live showdown in Piccadilly's The Pigalle Club.
Two weeks later the winner will be performing their music on one of the most exciting festival stages in the world.
