Earlier this year, the festival issued a call out for new artists to perform at Beyond The Music 2024. As a result, 70 brand new artists have been added to this year’s festival, with 25% of the lineup dedicated to local North West-based artists, including [ K S R ], Yasmin Coe, poor effort., Moreish Idols, Cody Frost and more.


Speaking about the lineup for Beyond The Music 2024, festival founder Oli Wilson said: “Our festival is all about supporting the new wave of music talent. We haven't booked headliners, we've selected this lineup with an amazing range of curators and also from several thousand new artists that applied to play this year.


From going through that process and booking the festival it seems like there is a revolution pending in music and we're really proud to be able to give a platform to this new generation of musicians. The talent isn’t just in one genre, it’s in every genre, and we’re representing that diverse mix of music and people in the festival.”
