Exchange and The Louisiana to host charity live stream for Help Feed Bristol in April

Posted on: 15 Mar 2021

Don't miss an evening of live music, interviews and more in support of Bristolians facing food poverty.

 

Exchange and The Louisiana have announced a full lineup for their latest charity live stream, set to showcase a selection of esteemed local acts to raise money for Help Feed Bristol.

 

The event will feature live and pre-recorded sets from renowned vocalists Fenne Lily, Katy J Pearson and Kate Stapley, as well as emerging acts DAMEFRISØR and Bubba, alongside exclusive interviews.

 

The live stream will be free to view on The Louisiana's Facebook page from 17:00 on Saturday 3 April, with donations encouraged on a pay-what-you-can basis. Find out more and contribute via Headfirst.

 

 

Launched in January of this year in response to the UK school meals scandal, Help Feed Bristol has so far raised close to £7,000 and gathered tonnes of food and supplies donations for food banks across the city.

 

The team are working to continue supporting food banks throughout the pandemic, and have plans to engage with the wider issue of tackling food poverty in Bristol in the near future.

 

Currently, all donations received by Help Feed Bristol are funding a consistent supply of food and essential items, with the charity now working towards a fundraising target of £10,000.

 

Help Feed Bristol's charity live stream, organised collaboratively by Exchange and The Louisiana, will feature three of the city's most highly-regarded female solo artists in Fenne Lily, Katy J Pearson and Kate Stapley.

 

100% of the proceeds will be donated, with the option to choose your own contribution on the Headfirst event listing.

 

The event is the latest in a long line of live-streamed events put together by the two venues, showcasing an array of talented Bristol-based artists on their virtual channels while doors remain closed due to the coronavirus.
