Title

Dave "Devilfish" Ulliott has crowned rock band Dirty Wish the Hull Daily
Mail's Talent Trail 2009 champions after the Sproatley five-piece act wowed
the packed crowd at Hull City Hall last week with a series of classic rock
anthems including Stereophonics Dakota, Maggie May, by Rod Stewart, and
Free's Alright Now.

The band, which has only been together for one year, won GBP1,500 and a
trophy at the DevilfishPoker.com sponsored event.

Ulliott, who saw many of the acts over the qualification rounds and
presented the prizes at the final, said, "The level of talent at the show was
fantastic and all the acts had something to offer but in the end Dirty Wish
had it all. The crowd was electrified and their performance was flawless so
they were deserved winners and congratulations to them. I might just see if
they're available for the support slot on my next tour!"

DevilfishPoker.com sponsored the Hull Daily Mail's annual Talent Trail
2009 competition which saw hundreds of hopeful performers shoot for the stars
from all across Yorkshire, England.

Over two months Talent Trail saw singers, dancers, musicians, and
comedians battle it out through 16 heats and a semi-final before concluding
at a packed Hull City Hall earlier this week.

The money raised through the competition will go to The Echoes Foundation
set up by Claire Stockton, whose son Finlay has an undiagnosed brain
disorder. She aims to raise enough money to open a one-stop centre for
children with special needs.
