Cambridge 105 Radio returns to the Cambridge Folk Festival

Cambridge 105 Radio is returning to the Cambridge Folk Festival and will be backstage at Cherry Hinton Hall.

The station will be broadcasting over 20 hours of programmes, with intimate performances and exclusive artist interviews.

Listeners can also hear live sets from the Emerging Talent Stage, The Den.

Future hitmakers Jake Bugg and Passenger first played The Den before headlining Stage 1 and over recent years Christian Raphael Prize winners Angeline Morrison and Katherine Priddy have followed suit.

There will also be a nightly video round-up available on the Cambridge 105 Radio YouTube channel.

The coverage will be presented by Steffi Callister, Julian Clover, Alex Elbro, Lucy Milazzo, Linda Ness and Les Ray. Veteran musician and journalist Ian A. Anderson will be on hand with daily previews of the Festival Line-Up.

Julian Clover, Editorial Lead, Cambridge 105 Radio said: “This is our largest outside broadcast of the year and we’re thrilled to be able to bring all of the atmosphere of the Festival from our intimate backstage area. Whether you’re at home or listening on site with the Radioplayer this is the Cambridge music event no one should miss.”
