This summer Ben's Country Music Show celebrates 18 years on the air. To mark the occassion we're hosting a birthday party and YOU'RE invited. The show has been broadcast from a variety of studios in Lincoln since 2010, so what better way to celebrate our 18th year on air than to host three of Nashville's top artists for a very special show that will never happen again. A true one off.
We will record it live for later broadcast, but if you're in the area or willing to travel, we hope you will be able to join us! ๐ค ๐
Feat. Victoria Banks, Jeff Cohen, Karli & James, Emily River Thomson and ME!

Great to sit down with the Directed by Dean podcast last week and chat about what it takes to put together a brand new music festival. We talk growing up in the East Midlands, the creative journey that brought me to this point! There's also a fun music and film quiz at the end. Hear the full interview on the link below.
