Wigwam Live

Wigwam Live is taking over The Ferryboat on Saturday 14 November, with music running from 4:00 pm through to 11:00 pm. It's billed as 'Rock The Ferryboat', a full evening of live music presented by Radio Wigwam Grassroots Connect, and the lineup brings together seven Radio Wigwam artists on one stage.

Having seven acts in one go means the night is more of a showcase than a single headline set. Each artist gets their own slot, so you'll hear seven different takes on the Radio Wigwam sound rather than one band playing a long set. It's the kind of bill that works best if you stick around for a few hours and let the different acts run into one another, rather than just popping in for one.

The whole thing is put on by Radio Wigwam Grassroots Connect, the community radio station that's been championing local talent across Reading. The artists on the bill are all part of that circle, so the night is a direct look at what's coming out of the station's orbit. If you've spent any time listening to them on the air, this is where you get to hear those names live.

It's at The Ferryboat on High Street, right in the centre of town, and entry is free, so there's no ticket to sort in advance. The music starts at 4:00 pm and carries on until 11:00 pm, giving you plenty of room to catch as many of the seven acts as you fancy.
