BBC Radio 3’s flagship experimental music programme Late Junction is curating a stage at End of the Road Festival.
Among the acts booked to perform on the festival’s Tipi Stage are South London singer/producer Klein, duo Xylouris White and Tuareg vocalist and guitarist Mdou Moctar.
Recordings of all performances will be broadcast on the Late Junction on the 12 to the 14 September from 11pm.
Alan Davey, Radio 3 controller, said: ‘Late Junction is a special place where adventurous listeners who are open to experiment can come across the surprising and unexpected.
‘At BBC Radio 3 we want to connect our audiences with remarkable music and so a partnership with End of the Road Festival is such a lovely fit for us - I know that listeners who can’t attend the festival are going to love having the best seat in the house through our broadcasts.’
Simon Taffe, founder and curator of End Of The Road Festival added: ‘End of The Road is a uniquely independent festival run by fanatical music lovers and is celebrated for its exceptional line up.
‘We are big fans of Radio 3’s Late Junction, with its never predictable presentations of experimental music and we’re thrilled to partner with them this year. It’s so great that Radio 3's audience will be able to get a taste of the festival from the comfort of their sofas, and that our audience will get to experience some new esoteric artists live on stage.’
End Of The Road takes place from 31 August and 3 September. Late Junction’s takeover on the Friday night will see four acts perform, followed by a late-night DJ set from the Late Junction’s Nick Luscombe.
KLEIN recently won PRS Foundation’s Oram Award for innovative women in music.
