Sunshine!

I am so, so happy it's now sunny here in the UK!

This past weekend I volunteered through REM at Bristol's annual Harbourside Festival doing artist liaison for the Queen Square stage, assisting the lovely stage manager Jen and the programmer Tony Benjamin. Acts on the stage included The Craft, a supercool British hip hop and R'n'B group (to me, not unlike N Dubz in the way they had a female singer, and two male rappers/MCs, only 1000000 times better!!), Jassi Sidhu, a hugely energetic Bhangra group from Birmingham, the incredible Sheelanagig, a crazy Gypsy rock band, and the Black Roots and DJ Derek headlining. All of the acts were completely fantastic and definitely made me realise how much I love working with artists at live events!

This week I haven't been up to much - scoping out more possible volunteering opportunities, applying for jobs, and shopping with Mama Smith - I am now the proud owner of the most beautiful pair of Missoni sunglasses!




And a gorgeous new summery dress. I am somewhat frantically dieting now the sun has its little hat on - I am NOT shorts ready!!

Brisfest Line Up has been revealed!

Woohoo!

I am so happy, excited and proud of what Team Brisfest has accomplished by putting together THIS fantastic line up:


I mean, De La Soul, Beardyman, Roni Size and Hawkwind on the same line up?! Who'da thought it!!
To buy tickets for what is sure to be a fantastic event, go to the Brisfest website or the Brisfest ticket site!

I can't wait!

Brisfest 2012

For any Bristolians who might stumble upon this page, or festival fans, or really anyone looking for something AWESOME to do in September, I hereby announce: BRISFEST 2012.

I joined the Brisfest team 10 months ago, and I am so happy about it. Especially because, after 4 years of Brisfest in the Harbourside and Bristol city centre, the team have reached their goal of bringing Brisfest to Ashton Court, and BRINGING BACK ASHTON COURT FESTIVAL! BUT BETTER!
