What happened?
For the first time Radio 2 Live in Hyde Park featured the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Introducing stage, with eight hotly tipped upcoming artists.Â

The nine artists selected for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Introducing were championed by their local shows before being selected by a panel of industry experts including Jamie Cullum, Bob Harris, Steve Lamacq and Jo Whiley.
What is ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Introducing?
ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Introducing was created in 2007 to support unsigned and undiscovered musicians.

We’ve brought all of the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½â€™s supporters of unsigned music together under one brand to nurture and give great exposure to amazing new artists across the UK.
In 2009, the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Introducing Uploader was created allowing artists to upload their tracks for the attention of our family of local and national ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio shows.
Our local shows pass on the very best tracks from their region to national stations and shows, including making suggestions for playlists on Radio 1 and 1Xtra and session slots at Maida Vale.
They also nominate artists for the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Introducing stages at the UK’s biggest music events and festivals. In 2013 alone, we have visited Derry-Londonderry, T in the Park, Reading and Leeds, Manchester Jazz Festival and Glastonbury.
