BBC Radio 2 Country is a four day pop-up digital radio service, which will run from midday to midnight from Thursday 10th to Sunday 13th March, centred around three days of live coverage from the C2C: Country to Country Festival in London

Alex Lester and Paul Sexton are backstage at the second day of C2C: Country to Country. Today’s line-up includes country pop crossover star Sam Hunt.

From a review:

"Arriving on stage just after 6pm, Hunt got straight to business launching into Leave the Night On, his breakthrough hit. Hunt’s brand of Country is definitely not for everyone. Traditionalists don’t like the way he infuses 90s R&B into the mix but I think it’s one of the things that makes him stand out. He’s clearly a Country artist but he’s just injecting his influences into his music, which to my ears is no bad thing.

During Take Your Time and House Party, Hunt entered into the audience interacting with fans and causing a bit of a frenzy. It’s the kind of hysteria that you normally associate with pop acts and Hunt certainly had most of the girls in his vicinity screaming.

Elsewhere in the set the heavy beats of Ex To See were a highlight as was the punchy Break Up in a Small Town. Hunt performed We Are Tonight, a song he wrote that was recorded by Billy Currington, and he mashed it up with RIhanna’s We Found Love.

The only real complaint about the set is that it felt like it ended pretty abruptly. Performing only 9 songs during his time on the stage, I felt like a couple more could have been squeezed in to round the set out. Perhaps I’m just too greedy and maybe he could have sung 20 songs and I still wouldn’t have been happy!"

For what it's worth, it was not my cup of tea at all.
