Hide AdSean McGinty of Radio Lancashire and BBC Introducing has lead the charge in curating an amazing line up for both days over the weekend. He said: “I’ve been presenting a new music programme for nearly 15 years, ten of those with BBC Introducing.
“I see one of my main roles is to provide opportunities for artists to develop, whether it’s being played on the radio, an interview or a live session.
“The icing on the doughnut though is to be able to offer an humungous opportunity like playing the BBC Introducing stage at Highest Point.”
