Oxfam aim to raise money, end poverty and make good music this October with their month long music festival, Oxjam. This is no ordinary music festival where you pay through the nose for tickets for the pleasure of camping in a muddy field, trekking miles to see your favourite artist, then find your view blocked by a giant flag being waved manically by a stockbroker called Steve.

Oxjam is completely different, it is made up of hundreds of events taking place during October, organised by ordinary people, in local pubs, clubs and front rooms. There are events happening all over the country catering for all musical tastes, if it’s good music you’re after, you will most definitely find it at an Oxjam gig.

There are 24 main takeover events happening around the UK including the Oxjam Cardiff Takeover on Sunday 11th October, spread across four of Cardiff’s finest live music venues – Clwb Ifor Bach, Toucan, Dempseys, Y Fuwch Goch featuring the best of the Welsh musical scene.

The Oxjam Music Festival have posted a good luck message on You Tube to everyone taking part in this year’s festival. Quality tune, however look for the middle guy giving himself an injury at the end!
