Speaking on the announcement, Chris Russell-Fish Managing Director said: “You've been asking us to bring Black Deer Festival to a wider audience, beyond the three-day festival based in Kent. And we’ve listened. With Black Deer Live we hope to welcome fans from across the globe to the Black Deer family, introducing them to the best talent in this incredible genre”.

Black Deer’s Festival Co-founder Gill Tee will be heading up the Creative Production for Black Deer Live & Black Deer Radio added - “It was always the vision to create a brand that was not limited to one festival. We can’t wait to take Black Deer on tour this year, supporting some of the greatest grassroots venues across the country and giving incredible emerging and established artists more opportunities to showcase their talents both live and on radio.”
