City Showcase To Touch Down In London Next Month
And Xfm will be hosting three very special nights there...
City Showcase, London’s leading festival for new music, takes place this year from May 7 to 9. All events are free with artists performing both day and night in venues across the city. City Showcase provides public exposure, advice and mentoring, plus the crucial contacts that new talent needs. It culminates in a series of live events in venues in London’s West End, giving musicians the opportunity to perform in West End stores and legendary venues such as The Borderline and The Apple Store.
Xfm will be hosting not one, but three special events at this year's event:
Thursday May 7: Indie/Alternative night with Xfm's Jon Hillcock - more info here
Friday May 7: Rock Night with Ian Camfield - more info here
Friday May 7: Live Open Air show - more info here
Saturday May 8: Electro Night curated by Eddy Temple Morris - more info here
Also this year's event will feature the first ever outdoor gig in the centre of Chinatown on Gerrard Street on May 8. Chinatown is the cultural capital of all things Asian, and acts already confirmed include Trip, Sophie Yau, DJ Eric Lau, FireFallDown and The Xcerts.
