Lounge on the Farms’ successful ‘You Say They Play’ is back for a consecutive year with previous act The Archie Wah Wahs wanting another taste.

Lounge on the Farm's highly popular You Say They Play is back for another year!

Lounge on the Farm is back with its popular ‘You Say They Play’, a competition that gives local talent a chance to share their music with large audiences from across the

country.

Since being introduced back in 2009, the competition has attracted a lot of media attention. The Archie Wah Wahs, a popular alternative band from Medway told the Kentish Front: “We’ve played at Lounge on the Farm twice now, it’s a decent place to play and it’s given us a lot of confidence and even some media coverage. We’ve played on local radio stations such as Fizzers and are due to have some airplay on BBC Radio One which is awesome.”

However, as the festival grows with popularity, so will the competition as bands who were unaware of the You Say They Play competition will be sure to apply making an already competitive industry even more difficult.

Archie Wah Wahs frontman Richard Braund, 29 said: “We’ll be going all out this year to secure a place at Lounge on the Farm and who knows, in a few years we may end up headlining.” The Archie Wah Wahs are also aiming to play at Hop Farm Festival where you can vote for them here: Vote for Archie Wah Wahs

At the moment Lounge on the Farm is under the risk of not going ahead. Canterbury council are currently reviewing the licence as Canterbury fire service put forward a health and safety issue regarding whether the farm could cope with the large capacity of people.

The case is due to be discussed on Thursday, 28 April.
