The Story of the DIY Gig

Huw Stephens and Jen Long put on their own gig in Jen's flat to show how it's done and tell the story of how they did it.

Find out what happened when Radio 1's Huw Stephens, and his trusty producer Jen Long from 大象传媒 Wales, decide to put on a gig in Jen's kitchen.

Along the way they discover the ups and downs of guerilla gigging from many of the people and bands who've been involved in putting on, or playing gigs in some of the country's more unusual venues, from medieval towers to museums to front rooms. They find out how to book a good line-up. And end up with an actual, proper gig recorded for Radio 1, in Jen's kitchen.

Featuring Envy, The Chapman Family and The Blackout.
