Radio 1 and 1Xtra will be broadcasting live from Newcastle (upon-Tyne, sorry under-Lyme types) from 4-6 Mar from a series of events being staged under the BBC station's In New Music We Trust banner.

Each of the days will have a genre bias, with Zane Lowe and Nick Grimshaw doing the indie schmindie thing on Thursday, Annie Mac, Kutski and the old guys doing dance stuff on Friday and Westwood and the 1Xtra groovy boys going all urban like on Saturday. The DJs will be hosting all sorts of new talent artists wise.

Radio 1 Live Events chief Neil Wyatt told CMU: "We're really looking forward to bringing In New Music We Trust Live to Newcastle for three nights of amazing broadcasts. This event really underlines BBC Radio 1 and Radio 1xtra's commitment to continually support new and live music throughout the year".
