75,000 young people are bullied each year because they are gay. 21,000 will attempt suicide.



Stonewall works at home, at school and at work to reach thousands of people across Britain and abroad, so that the despair and pain many still feel becomes a thing of the past and they can be proud to be themselves.

THE TOOTSIE ROLLERS (live)



Described as 'The Spice Girls meet The Andrews Sisters' The Tootsies met five years ago when cast together in retro musical 'Mack & Mabel' . It was love at first sight & having had the time of their lives on the show the girls made the decision that they must find a way to continue performing together and sharing their passion for all things vintage... The Tootsie Rollers were born!

Since rolling together the girls have been booked to sing by Colin Firth, Kevin Bacon, Kevin Spacey & Richard Branson & have performed at Royal Ascot, Twinwood, Goodwood, Bestival & Wembley.

They write their own retro inspired music & all also give vintage & contemporary classics a totally Tootsie Twist.

Come Roll With The Tootsies!

RITA PAYNE (live)



Self proclaimed “Acoustic Foot-Stompers” Rita Payne (Rhiannon Scutt and Pete Sowerby) are one of the UK’s fastest rising acts. From supporting some of the country’s leading artists to appearing on BBC One’s The Voice UK, this unstoppable duo’s voyage to superstardom is unquestionable.

Drawing from eclectic mix of musical tastes, from Fleetwood Mac and The Beatles to Paloma Faith and Beirut, The L-Fest 2014 award winners use breathtaking vocal harmony, mesmerising guitar riffs and toe tapping beats to create their own unique brand of acoustic music that is enjoyed by the most traditional folkies, rockers and chart lovers alike.

Even though they rub shoulders with the likes of Jon McClure, John Otway and Wilko Johnson on a regular basis, this small town duo still have their feet firmly on the ground and are always eager to promote their hometown. “Doncaster’s finest songwriters,” were commissioned to write the Official Anthem of Doncaster for the opening of the new multi million pound arts venue- Cast, and performed it to a thousand strong sell out crowd. They then went onto make history by becoming the first musicians to headline the venue.

They have released two albums to critical acclaim and appeared on BBC1’s The Voice UK, as well as supporting the likes of Reverend and the Makers and Lucy Spraggan, and appearing on the same bills as The Beautiful South, Big Country, Bellowhead and The Animals. They were also selected by KFC to help soundtrack their new Deep South Menu online.

Wherever possible, Rita Payne use their music to make a difference. They are keen activists and regularly support charities both local and global, using their rapidly growing profile to publicly raise both money and awareness whenever and wherever they can.

ENGLISH DISCO LOVERS (DJs)



The English Disco Lovers (EDL) movement aims to reclaim the hated EDL acronym from The English Defence League and make it stand for something positive. Currently we are attempting to Google bomb them for the search term 'EDL', as well as accumulating more Facebook likes and Twitter followers. More recently, we have been raising money for causes that support multiculturalism and equality.

"The English Disco Lovers' deployment of wit and fun as weapons against belligerent xenophobia is a fine tribute to disco's subversive utopian vision." Dorian Lynskey, The Guardian

"Daft Punk and others may have made disco the sound of the summer, but this EDL are making the genre about more than just getting lucky." Oliver Keens, Time Out London
