Bitch, Please! partner with Caring in Bristol for charity livestream series
Posted on: 08 May 2020The renowned party-starters are hosting a new online series to support Bristol's homeless population.
Few promoters are as synonymous with summer in Bristol as Bitch, Please!, hosts of some of the city's biggest parties and a pillar of the local LGBTQ+ community.
Labels, promoters and venues across the country have been hit hard by the Coronavirus crisis, but what do you do when events of all sizes have been cancelled for the entirety of your busiest time of year?
Running in partnership with local charity Caring in Bristol, Bitch, Please! are streaming a month of DJ sets through their Facebook page, inviting world-renowned artists to lighten up your lockdown live from their living rooms.
With over £150 raised so far through sets from London-based DJ Syreeta and Sue Veneers founder Chester Hayes, US duo The Illustrious Blacks are locked in for this weekend's live stream at 19:30 on Saturday 9 May.
Expect psychedelic vibrations and sky-high energy as the prolific DJs and producers link up with Bitch, Please! for the second time, almost a year on from their huge headline set at Bitch, Pride! 2019.
Continuing right through the month, the Bitch, Please! live stream series is set to showcase a range of esteemed local and international acts, including Ellis Roberts b2b Sonic (Wednesday 13 May), Wes Baggaley (Saturday 23 May) and Manami (Saturday 30 May).
