I plan to hold the festival on North Parade, Bradford. This is because it is a single road in the city centre which has multiple music venues and therefore would be accessible and easy to navigate.
Potential venues include:
- Rum-Shack-A-Lack
- Boar & Fable
- The Record Cafe
- REWIRED
- The Peacock Bar
- The Underground (not located on North Parade but is only a short walk away)
- Loony Golf (not a music venue but may be able to get involved and provide family entertainment)
As this is a festival that aims to celebrate Bradford’s musicians, I am planning to have a variety of genres and therefore will be working with artists all of which will be at different times in their careers. It will give them all an opportunity to play to a wider audience.
Potential Artists include:
- Wilko Wilkes
- Ms. Wisdom
- Premaura
- Red Shakes
- The Moors
- Mezcal
- Loud George
- Beach Crisis
- Geraldine Snell
- Beckie Brill
- Adenico
- Rebecca Barron
- Patch
- Wait For Wednesday
- The Flow
- Artio
- Tippi McGarry
- West Riding
- Harry Speight
- Kabeer Ali
- Daisy Graves
- Artio
- Omoia
- Megan Swanepoel
