Set in the stunning grounds of Himley Hall, the festival’s debut promises to be a fun-filled celebration of the area’s rich music scene.
From a stellar lineup of bands and singers to mouthwatering food and drink offerings to accompany the fun, Himley Hall will be the place to be this weekend.
“This has been a long time coming,” said organisers James Stevens and Gemma Evans.
“We wanted to create something that truly represents the Black Country — its music, its people, and its pride.
“The Black Country has an incredible music scene, and we’re proud to bring it all together in one place – right here at Himley.”
Local musical legends Giant and The Georges will be headlining the event, along with The Headshrinkers, Sam Draisey & The Revolt and The Empty Can.
Also taking to the stage will be The NiteCrawlers, Joe James Thomas, Kerry Worton, Vinyl Revival, All Due Respect and The Gentleman Songsters.
Rounding out the lineup will be Izzy Pop, Jo Millard, Darcie Edwards, Lawrie Jean, Brian Stevens, Matt Johnson, Rockacella and The Buskateers.
Street food vendors, pop-up bars and craft and artisan stalls will be serving up delicious offerings throughout the day.
Mr Stevens added: “It’s about good music and good company.
“There’s no corporate feel — just grassroots energy and community spirit.”
Ms Evans added: “Himley is the perfect setting.
“Whether you’re here for the music, the atmosphere, or just to relax in the sun with a pint, this is going to be a proper Black Country Day out.”
The inaugural Black Country Music Festival will be taking over Himley Hall from 11am on Saturday (July 12).
