Together The People (TTP) is a 5,000 capacity, non-camping music and arts festival created and founded by local music promotions company One Inch Badge.
The Festival will take place on the weekend of September 5-6 and will celebrate music, food, community, film and arts in the city of Brighton & Hove by delivering a high quality, creative, family friendly and socially aware flagship event that is accessible to everyone.
The line-up of artists appearing will include: Super Furry Animals, the legendary Martha Reeves & The Vandellas, The Levellers, Billy Bragg, Ghostpoet, Public Service Broadcasting, Lucy Rose, Roots Manuva, The XCerts and Lucy Spraggan to mention a few.
Headlining the main stage on Saturday, September 5 are Welsh pop collective Super Furry Animals (SFA). Fronted by Gruff Rhys, they are celebrated not only for their exceptional song-writing and spectacular live shows, but also for their creativity and imagination. With a back catalogue of countless classics from their 20 plus year career, this headline slot looks set to be a highlight of the festival season.
Joining them on the main stage on Saturday are Brighton folk-rock stalwarts The Levellers, political poet and master singer-songwriter Billy Bragg, Mercury-nominated producer/MC Ghostpoet, talented local rising star Chris Simmons and emotive and spirited pop from popular X-Factor finalist Lucy Spraggan.
1960s Motown legends Martha Reeves & The Vandellas take to the main stage, on Sunday September 6 along with instrumental duo Public Service Broadcasting, folk songstress Lucy Rose and Roots Manuva who was recently dubbed “England’s greatest rapper” by The Independent.
More Brighton talent will be represented with psychedelic hip-hop outfit Dizrali & The Small Gods with local party providers Carnival Collective opening the stage. The very special guest headliner for Sunday at TTP will be revealed very soon!
