Lauren Laverne and Stuart Maconie pick up the broadcasting baton, as the 6 Music Festival By Day coverage continues.

They are broadcasting live from Newcastle's Ouseburn district, which has been called the city's "beating art." Embracing noisy bands, intelligent conversation, film, spoken word and comedy, the daytime festival line-up is spread across four different venues.

Cluny 1 will host the aforementioned noisy bands, including Girl Band, Joanna Gruesome and Fat White Family; Cluny 2 is the home of conversation with guests including Bryan Ferry, Hot Chip, Gang of Four's Andy Gill, Royal Blood, and Wire's Colin Newman.

The Cumberland Arms has a diverse and folky vibe, with music from Marika Hackman, Songhoy Blues, Moulettes, Kings of the South Seas, Stornoway, and Kate Tempest and Eliza Carthy paired up in conversation.

And the entertainment at The Star & Shadow will range from the sublime (poets John Cooper Clarke and Murray Lachlan Young, Ben Watt and Tracey Thorn, a discussion about music-making in the North East; and music documentaries curated by Don Letts) to the brilliantly ridiculous (comedy and a special edition of The First Time with the renowned musician, and sometime Breakfast DJ, Shaun W. Keaveny!).
