Tonight, on their New Music Fix Daily show on BBC Radio 6 Music (Mondays – Thursdays, 7-9pm), Deb Grant and Nathan Shepherd announced that this year's New Music Fix Live will take place in Sheffield from Monday 24th – Thursday 27th November.

For four days, Deb and Nathan will broadcast from the city, celebrating its music scene and emerging artists.

From Monday 24th – Wednesday 26th November (7-9pm), they'll present live from the BBC Radio Sheffield studios, Shoreham Street. They'll bring listeners sessions and interviews - recorded in Sheffield in the lead-up to New Music Fix Live - from singer-songwriter, guitarist and producer Richard Hawley, musician and songwriter Self Esteem, and members of the nine-piece collective blending jazz, hip-hop, afrobeat and more, Nubiyan Twist. These three shows will also feature DJ sets - recorded at Sheffield's Grub Records - from Sheffield's most exciting labels and club nights including Off Me Nut Records and Control.

On Thursday 27th November (7-10pm), Deb and Nathan will broadcast an extended edition of their show from Yellow Arch Studios, where DJs from the not-for-profit, DIY music venue and community space Gut Level, producer and bassline queen Big Ang, and electronic producer I. JORDAN perform sets for an audience of 6 Music listeners in the room, and for those tuned in across the UK.

BBC Radio Sheffield will simulcast New Music Fix Live on Thursday 27th November (7-10pm).

Samantha Moy, Head of BBC Radio 6 Music says: "With New Music Fix Live, we dedicate weekday evenings to celebrating a city renowned for producing world-class alternative music. First it was Glasgow, then Belfast, and now we're heading to Sheffield, where Deb and Nathan will explore and champion all corners of its legendary music scene. Thank you to our friends at BBC Radio Sheffield for having us!"

Rob Dowell, Executive Editor, BBC Radio Sheffield says: "Sheffield and South Yorkshire have such a rich pipeline of musical talent that just doesn't seem to stop, from Pulp to Self Esteem and new acts like Life Aquatic Band who have been supported by BBC Introducing and 6 Music. It's great to have our colleagues at 6 Music here with us to amplify the talent we have in this corner of Yorkshire."
