Richard will be reading at The Weekend Rumble festival in Usk, South Wales, taking place on Friday 4th and Saturday 5th July 2025. Tickets and more information HERE.

From the Weekend Rumble website:

‘The Weekend Rumble is a two day music and arts festival held in the beautiful countryside of Usk, Souh Wales.

We’ll have some cracking bands, some great DJs and plenty of new talent all in a glamorous barn-based setting. We are a small but perfectly formed festival and The Weekend Rumble aims to keep the event as affordable as possible so that people who come can have the best of times whilst they are with us. 

There’s free camping and room for motorhomes/campers and some amazing street food. The music is eclectic and the party vibes are great. We endeavour to make The Weekend Rumble intimate, fun and make the vibe match the countryside, which is amazing and beautiful.

We are as much about helping unsigned/emerging talent, especially if it's Welsh, as we are on the likes of established acts we’ve had on such as Huey Morgan, Das Koolies, Panic Shack, The Lovely Eggs, The Bug Club, The Darling Buds,  John Power, Steve Cradock, Bez, Rowetta, Don Letts, Benji Webbe (Skindred), Dub War, Goldie Lookin’ Chain, Trampolene, The Rogues and even a Gay Elvis! In 2025, we’ll have room for more bands, acoustic acts and DJs wherever they are from! So get in touch if you’re interested as no ideas go unnoticed.

We are within easy travelling distance from the Midlands, London, M4, M5, Bristol and Cardiff so come along and join in the fun... We can’t wait to see you at the 2025 Weekend Rumble…’
