AN evening of live music will mark the third anniversary of a magazine’s launch.

Bands from across the region will perform at Stockton’s Musiclounge as fans of NE Volume gather to celebrate its third ‘birthday’.

Darlington ska act The Skapones, Hartlepool’s White Negroes and Middlesbrough performer Alistair James will take to the stage on Friday, June 29.

The event has been organised by the team behind NE Volume, a publication which focuses on culture and music in the North East.
