Eight local bands will face judges with decades of musical experience tonight from 7pm as they battle to win a place at this summer’s Bingley Music Live.

More than 130 groups applied for a spot at the festival, and the final few will compete at a battle of the bands at Victoria Hall, Keighley.

Judges include local rock superstar Tony Wright, singer in Terrorvision, and Inder Goldfinger, Ian Brown’s percussionist.

The line-up is Marc and Abi, Apollo Junction, Jade Helliwell, Quentin's Basement, St Somebody, The Runners, Down Radio, and Redemtion, and a set by Holy Moly And The Crackers.
