Billy Bragg and Seth Lakeman will be performing as part of 6Music's Hub Sessions on Thursday  26. Also on Thursday, Vashti Bunyan and Donovan are pairing up to recreate the folk scene of the 60s and 70s.

Nitin Sawney is curating a night on Friday 27 with Laura Izibor, Fink, Natacha Atlas, Reena Bhardwaj, Tina Grace and, er, Will Young. You couldn't make it up, really.

On Saturday, the Asian Network have organised a night of beats with Tigerstyle, Niraj Chag, Bombay Dub Orchestra and Aziz, then on Sunday, 1Xtra's Rodney P has curated a night with Catch 22 ft Deadly Hunter; Instrumental ft Rodney P & Eva Abraham and The Landscapers ft Benjamin Zephaniah.
