ARGUABLY one of the X Factor's most underrated contestants will host a talent search launch party.
Robert 'Shylo' Allen will present The Music Lounge in South Woodford tomorrow night, August 4.
From tomorrow there will be a night full of vocal entertainment taking place on the first Wednesday of every month.
Mr Allen, or Shylo as he is now known, featured in the ITV show's third series in 2006.
He was in the over 25 category and was mentored by Sharon Osbourne before being eliminated in week six, about a month before Leona Lewis was crowned the eventual winner.
Shylo said he is excited about the talent search concept which will be held at RS Lounge in Woodford New Road.
He said: "This is going to be a great opportunity for serious artists to come down and showcase their talent in a relaxed atmosphere with people who enjoy all types of music.
"I am very honoured to be able to give my support to all of the up and coming talented people out there and am excited at the prospect of performing."
Shylo released his debut single in October last year and he is still trying to establish himself as top popular artist.
Artists, groups, bands or musicians wanting to perform should email enquiries@epmuniversal.com for more details.
