The I Love North Shields Vintage Market has revealed the full live music line-up for its Autumn Edition at Salt Market Social on Sunday 25 October.
The initiative provides a stage for musicians and performers from across the North East, alongside more than 50 independent vintage traders, food and drink across two floors of the Fish Quay venue.
The programme has been developed by I Love North Shields with Laura Rosierse, founder of North East-based LLIVELY Music, which supports grassroots artists through promotion, events, tours and showcases.
Performers receive dedicated stage time throughout the day, with most appearing in 30-minute slots. Future line-ups will be announced a few weeks before each market, providing continuing opportunities for local and emerging talent.
Artists including Leazes, Sabrina Kennedy and Hels Pattison have previously joined I Love North Shields events, helping to establish the markets as another platform for discovering live music in the region.
The line-up for Sunday 25 October is:
10am–10.30am — Jimi Handtrix Puppet=
10.40am–11.10am — Mooshi
11.20am–11.50am — Simon Taylor

3.40pm–4.10pm — Callum McLean
4.20pm–4.50pm — Anna Lou
5pm–5.30pm — Oliver Armstrong

Experienced musician and showcase organiser Steve Willis will oversee the live sound, helping every performer sound their best on the day.
Simmie Harper, founder of I Love North Shields and curator of the Vintage Markets, said:
“We want our markets to be about more than shopping. North Shields and the wider North East have an incredible grassroots music scene, and we want to give performers a welcoming stage where they can reach new audiences.
“Visitors can browse more than 50 independent traders, enjoy food and drink and discover live performers throughout the day. Each future market will have its own line-up, announced a couple of weeks before the event, so there will always be something new to experience.”
