Tash, Kate and Mari were back on Soho Radio this month with a special playlist celebrating the female, non-binary & LGBTQ+ artists who are playing The Great Escape this year! They dedicated an entire section of the show to the artists who are performing as part of the GIHE showcase at the festival on The Soundwaves Stage on Brighton Beach on Saturday 16th May – so listen out for tracks from Problem Patterns, The Baby Seals, YAKKIE, steel. and Jessie Mac…
The team were also joined in the studio by Ky & Estella from East London queer disco-punk band WIDGET. They spoke about the joys of being in a DIY band, the amazing people they’ve met through their various DIY communities and shared stories about the tracks on their self-released debut album, CLASSY HITS VOL.2. If you can’t make our GIHE showcase at The Great Escape this Saturday 16th May, you should head to The Pie House in Deptford to watch WIDGET play a special fundraiser gig instead! Grab a ticket here.
