The festival will include performances on five
stages in and around the Winter Gardens complex and it is anticipated that
around 100 performers will participate in the event
over the long weekend.
Martin Blore, Executive Producer from Fit The Bill
said: “This is a very exciting time for British Country and Americana music.
This genre is synonymous with Nashville, but the Brits are breaking barriers,
creating their own style of country music and attracting fans from all over the
world. Our home-grown talent is also achieving mainstream
chart success and we felt it was a good time to
create a festival that celebrates British Country and Americana artists.”
He added: “We also want to provide a public
platform for talented, emerging artists whose music needs a wider audience and
we will be inviting music industry colleagues to come and enjoy the Making
Waves stages.”
The spectacular indoor setting of the Winter Gardens Blackpool enables music
lovers to ditch the need for tents in favour of local accommodation providers,
or the comfort of their own homes.
