BBC Music Sound Of Live is an intimate gig featuring live performances from artists on the Sound Of 2019 longlist who the BBC and a panel of influential industry experts, including Ellie Goulding, have tipped for success in the coming year.

Celebrating its 17th anniversary, the BBC Music Sound Of list has a track history of predicting who are going to be the next big thing because it is chosen by some of the most influential people at the heart of their respective musical genres.

This year’s selected panel of 136 experts included representatives from the likes of VICE, i-D, Mixmag; and from the biggest music festivals including Glastonbury, Eurosonic and Reading & Leeds. The panel also featured DJs including Clara Amfo, Zoe Ball and DJ Target.
