A popular independent festival is offering Hampshire musicians the chance to perform.
Mucky Weekender, the three-day festival founded by Dub Pistols frontman Barry Ashworth, returns to Vicarage Farm, Woodmancott, Winchester, from September 10 to 12, and is inviting grassroots artists from Hampshire and the surrounding area to apply for an opening slot on the main stage.
Now entering its seventh year, the festival has become a staple of the south’s grassroots music scene, attracting 5,000 attendees annually across five stages set within 28 acres of private parkland.
Ashworth, founder of Mucky Weekender, said: "We’re passionate about supporting grassroots music and giving emerging artists opportunities.
"Mucky Weekender has always been about community, discovery and championing new talent, so we’d love to hear from Hampshire acts and artists from the surrounding area who feel they fit the spirit and musical ethos of the festival."
This year's line-up includes Goldie (Live), Roni Size, David Rodigan, Don Letts, Darren Emerson, Stanton Warriors and Gentleman’s Dub Club.
Artists interested in applying to perform can do so directly through the Mucky Weekender website.
