An unsigned artist has said that being given the opportunity to perform before a headline act at a popular festival is "surreal".
Solo Jane is one of four artists who will warm up the crowd for headliners such as Ms Dynamite and Giggs at Love Saves The Day Festival in Bristol on 24 and 25 May.
"When I got the call I couldn't believe it. It felt surreal," said Sophie Cook, 29, who goes by the name Solo Jane.
Along with Ssadcharlie, Sambee and Nat Oaks, the singer secured the opportunity through artist development programme Next Level by BigTeam CIC and Bristol Beacon.
Big Team CIC provides opportunities for people from lower socio-economic backgrounds and global majority groups to work in the festival industry.
The programme also gives upcoming artists living in Bristol the chance to be mentored by renowned musicians and secure performance opportunities across the UK.
