Our aim to maximise artist's connection with audience, and provide an experimental platform for indie creatives to help nurture voices and launch careers.
With a mixture of fresh talent and festival veterans covering all genres there really is something for everyone! Screening exclusively with our partners Vimeo OnDemand.
