SFTOC is run throughout the year by a small but dedicated team, expanding to over 200 freelancers, contractors and volunteers on festival day.
Mark Carlin – Founding Director
Rivca Burns – Creative Director
Emma Thompson – Creative Producer
Siân Roberts – Festival Manager
Our artist line-up is programmed and booked by the promoters and platforms that we invite to select each of the stages at the festival.
If you are a promoter, develop creative ideas or put on events, and think that you could bring something amazing to SFTOC, we would love to talk to you!
If you are an artist who wants to perform at SFTOC we recommend that you make contact with promoters and programmers directly. The promoter line-up changes annually but you can check it in the past festivals section of our history page..
For any enquiries, including press enquiries, please drop us a line at info@soundsfromtheothercity.com
Sounds wouldn’t happen without the help of our amazing volunteers, who assist with stage management, wristband exchange, stewarding, site management and more.
Our volunteer call out usually begins in February, if you would like to register your interest before then please drop us a line at info@soundsfromtheothercity.com.
