SIRF & The Fringe 2009

The sun is shining, festival season is in full swing, and in the run up to The Fringe at Stockton Riverside, BBC Tees is holding a series of mini gigs.

They're completely free gigs, and the idea is that you get the chance to discover a local band you can fall in love with ahead of the festival and impress your mates by introducing them to some fab local talent.
