This Friday and Saturday we're hosting BTC Festival 2024 across the town. It takes part at The Smokehouse, The Baths, St Stephen's Church, Corn Exchange and Ancient house - plus a free to attend stage on the Cornhill.
For fans of 6 Music but it also ventures into drill, rap and even country! It's a real eclectic mixture of up and coming quality artists and established artists.
This year we have shame, Ibibio Sound Machine, Alexis Taylor from Hot Chip, The Mysterines, Lambrini Girls and 70 odd more.
The (free) Cornhill stage also has food vans and a Adnams truck to sip a nice pint of Ghostie or Mosaic in the rain while listening to some of the region's best talent. Music from around 2ish - 9:30pm each day.
The paid indoor festival is until 2am. There is also a talks programme which is pretty cool including chats with Simon from Fierce Panda (Keane/Ash?/Coldplay and 1000s of other artists that never made it) and Deb Googe from My Bloody Valentine.
I think I'm just out of shot about 5 seconds into that video!
Not going this year but can also vouch for it being a great way to spend a day and into the night.
Next Wednesday, I will be going to see, for the second time, one of the bands I saw at last year's event so it's a great way to discover new music that you love.

See you over the weekend buh.
Looking forward to it. The Smokehouse line up is really strong! Hoping to catch Borough Council and C Turtle and possibly Plantoid too. Lots of good stuff there.
St Steve's it's Esme Emerson, Mary and The Junkyard as must sees + JIM.
Some clashes going on but the main thing is catching up with people, drinking and having a good time! Bricknasty will be insanely good too mate.
Thanks for being a legend

Borough Council and C Turtle are too of my must sees.
BTC is an amazing thing to have in our town.
I was born underwater, I dried out in the sun.
I started humping volcanoes baby, when I was too young.
