So as today is my Dad’s birthday and Just Push Play Festival was founded in his memory raising funds for the incredible St Nicholas Hospice Care I thought it was the perfect moment to announce a few exciting updates for next year’s incredible event !
Joining our headliners Black Spiders, as well as Blue Nation, Circus 66 and Takeaway Thieves on Saturday, August 3rd, as Just Push Play returns to The ApexFirst off joining the line up we have the incredible The Damn Truth since first hearing their single ‘This is Who We Are Now’ when they sent it into my radio show. I absolutely fell in love with these guys, and having seen them several times up and down the country that has definitely cemented them as one of my favourite bands out there so to have them on the bill is a real pleasure. “We are absolutely thrilled to be a part of Just Push Play this year! Ever since meeting Lee, he has become a pillar of our UK community and it is an honour to take part in what will be an incredibly memorable night at the Apex! We cannot wait to be back and see you all again ” Lee-la Baum, The Damn Truth
Also joining the bill is the brilliant Rebecca Downes, one of the finest performers I’ve ever seen live, she is simply outstanding. From the moment I saw her perform for the first time I wanted Rebecca on the Just Push Play stage so to have this now come to fruition I’m absolutely over the moon and can’t wait to see her bring the Rebecca Downes experience we all know and love to the apex. “I am very excited to be part of the Just Push Play Festival in 2024. It’s an amazing event, in support of a very important cause, in a superb venue and I am really looking forward to it. Huge thanks to Lee for inviting us, for all he does for the festival and for all the funds he’s raised over the years. It’s a fantastic tribute to his late father, who would be very proud of him.” Rebecca Downes
And after an outstanding performance at last year’s debut Friday Night Shindig the incredible Loz Campbell will be returning this time to the main stage to take it by storm. With new music in the works and with her incredible live performances exciting audiences all over the country this is going to be a set not to miss ! “We had such a good time at Just Push Play 2023 we’re coming back for more and this time on the main stage! Can’t wait!” Loz Campbell
With more bands to announce, and the return of our Friday Night Shindig this is set to be a great weekend of live music !
