They've developed a new venture designed to champion local talent, support independent venues and keep the area's live music scene thriving. Jo Gray caught up with them to find out more. Zehra and Ian would love to hear from any interested local artists or venues. Email [email protected] to find out more.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The lure of great music at one of the many stages at Victorious Festival last year brought old friends back together – and sparked something unexpected.
