Inside Isaac Neilson’s gig‑a‑day challenge.

Thursday, 5 March 2026

Buxton’s own Isaac Neilson - described by BBC Introducing as “poetry in motion” - sits down with Kirsty to talk about his bold challenge to play a gig every single day in 2026.

He opens up about the grind of being an independent artist, why he’s documenting the whole journey on social media, and whether you can break into the mainstream without industry connections. A proper look at the determination, creativity and community behind UK grassroots music.
