Brickman’s Big Break Gen Xers and Baby Boomers, let your talent shine! Jim Brickman is presenting Brickman’s Big Break, the only talent search exclusively for singers and musicians over the age of 40, to benefit The Actors Fund. If you’ve always felt like you wanted to share your talent with the world (and you’re over 40), Brickman’s Big Break contest could be your chance! In a world where TV Talent shows focus on ages 18-30, Brickman’s Big Break embraces talented men and women ages 40+. The final Top 20 will be determined by Jim Brickman’s team of industry pros and votes from fans; the group will then be narrowed down to the Top 10, who will be featured on a livestream concert for fans and experts to vote. Industry experts include high profile talent managers, Grammy winning songwriters and luminaries from American Idol and America’s Got Talent.
