A 12 hour music marathon will raise money for Acorns Children’s Hospice.

Local bands are playing live at the Great Malvern Hotel in Graham Road, Malvern, from midday to midnight tomorrow.

The non-stop gig will see musicians including Slack Granny, Babajack, Men in General, Megan Bradley and many more, performing in the hotel’s Great Shakes bar and Brasserie restaurant.

The music friendly venue already hosts an open mic night every Tuesday. Organisers hope this event will help raise the profile of home-grown bands even further.

Local ale and food will be available.
