Local news for Thursday 17th September

Over the August Bank Holiday weekend, the Shine Radio team headed down to Southsea seafront to soak up the festival atmosphere, discover local bands and artists, and seek out some interesting people to chat to.

Baby Said is a Portsmouth-based rock band formed by sisters Veronica Pal (lead guitar and lead vocals) and Jess Pal (bass and lead vocals).

Jo Gray caught up backstage with the two talented sisters, fresh from their performance on the Under The Trees Stage at Victorious Festival.

And keep an ear out for a much-needed refreshment getting kicked over… when it’s live, and anything can happen!

There’s plenty more from Victorious Festival to come, with more highlights landing very soon.
