CambodiaFest Friday 8th April - Malik House

CAMBODIAFEST is running in aid of a group from Bradford who are raising funds which will allow them to travel to Cambodia and build houses in conjunction with the local charity, Volunteer Building Cambodia.

The venue is Malik House, Manor Row Bradford and doors are at 6pm.

Great line up showcasing Bradford's diverse musical talent! Thank you to these amazing artists who all have given their time free of charge fir this charity fundraiser.

Tickets only £10 and available from:

£12 (£10 Concessions) Under 18’s £6

Tel: 01947 603475 or visit www.musicportfestival.com for tickets

Widely regarded as the finest touring Salsa Orchestra Tromboranga is the pure essence of “Salsa Dura” the salsa style developed in the 1970s with an emphasis on the instrumental part of the music (piano, bass, horns and percussion) over the lead vocals. Tromboranga´s spicy ingredients are led by the trombones and strong percussion, creating a raw, strong and a very danceable sound. Tromboranga is made up of musicians from the Caribbean and Europe, all residents of Barcelona, Spain.

After 6 albums, Tromboranga are one of the most popular Salsa bands in the world circuit and they have truly become international, not only traveling in Europe, but touring in Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico and  recently conquering the USA. Their music is very popular with Salsa dance aficionados, as well as a growing Latino fan base in Latin America, the USA and the Latino diaspora .

There will be a big dancefloor on the night and special offers on festival tickets as well as the unveiling of the new Musicport graphic and poster design.

Confirmed acts (subject to contract) for Musicport Festival 21-23rd October with other international acts still to be announced.

Live in Barnsley (Press Release)

Line-up Announcement 

LIVE in Barnsley, the town’s first metropolitan free music festival that began in June 2013, is now into its fourth year. 

This year’s LIVE in Barnsley FREE Music Festival takes place on Saturday 18 June 2016 and the organisers today announced another batch of bands that will appear this year.

The following bands will be appearing at Live In Barnsley 2016:





Aztec Doll from Barnsley
An alternative rock band that gel post-punk, krautrock and dream pop, Aztec Doll have supported Nine Black Alps on tour and have been described as “delicately haunting and scathingly sharp” by Whisperinandhollerin. You can check out Aztec Doll at Barnsley Rock & Blues (Polish Club) on Friday 29th April.

Four Authors from Penistone
Currently touring the north of England in support of their recently released ‘Chapter II’ EP and described by BBC Introducing Sheffield’s Christian Carlisle as “Pop/rock at it’s finest”, Four Authors look set to be one of many highlights of this year’s festival. For a taste of what’s to come this summer, catch Four Authors during their set at Barnsley Rock & Blues (Polish Club) on Friday 8th April as part of the Live In Barnsley Taster Tour.

Pistol Pete Wearn from Stafford
Described by Stafford Radio as a “local blues legend”, Pistol Pete Wearn’s music has been played on BBC Radio 6 and earned him support slots with Stefan Grossman and The Stray Birds. If you appreciate foot-stomping, rustic roots music, Pistol Pete Wearn is the guy for you.

Ricky Fleming from Leeds
You’ll be hearing a lot more from soulful singer-songwriter Ricky Fleming in the coming months with his recently released four-track EP ‘We Could Be More’. Be sure to check him out before his Live In Barnsley performance.

Shades from Bradford
Rap/grime artist Shades is a young talent to watch out for with five years of music making defying his young age and a richer repertoire than his 19 years would suggest.

Electric Luddites from Sheffield
Five-piece rock band Electric Luddites by their own definition specialise in “original songs with anti-establishment sentiments and left-leaning tendencies which they belt out with gusto”. Enough said.
