We celebrate live music all year round on 1Xtra but this month, it's live music tastic!

During June, we're digging into the archives and re-visiting some of our greatest live music moments plus bringing you a few new ones too.

We're talking big star concerts, exclusive sessions, and special 1Xtra groundbreaking events. To kick things off, Keri Hilson recorded an amazing acoustic set at the Maida Vale studios in London, followed by a series of UK Dancehall stars and re-runs of some classic performances.

Throughout June, you'll be able to hear sets from stars like John Legend, Akon, Wiley, Keri Hilson, Kano, Stephen Marley, and much much more on 1Xtra. Plus we'll also be bringing you videos and photos from key live music moments.
