Synopsis
Stuart Maconie kicks off Radio 2's coverage of Latitude 2009, the Suffolk arts festival which features music, comedy, theatre, poetry and literature.
Stuart is live backstage at the festival's Obelisk Arena, which is set to feature headline performances from Pet Shop Boys, Grace Jones and Nick Cave over the weekend. He speaks to Little Boots and other performers as they arrive at the Sunrise Coast festival. Little Boots is a young electro pop artist from Blackpool, called Victoria Hesketh, who won the BBC's Sound of 2009 poll and has recently delivered on this early promise with her first chart hit, New In Town.
Further Latitude coverage will feature on Claudia Winkleman's Arts Show tomorrow, Dermot O'Leary on Saturday, and Janice Long on Monday. And there will be additional coverage from Steve Lamacq and the Music Week on BBC 6 Music.
BACKSTAGE AT THE LATITUDE FESTIVAL!
With live music and chat from Little Boots, Edwyn Collins and Simon Armitage!
