Ralph's been following the exploits of The 2ube Liverpool with great interest of late. Their live online shows from the Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts in the lead up to an online festival on April 13th have been excellent, and now they're teaming up with Bay TV to bring a weekly show of highlights plus live footage.

 In the spirit of the iconic eighties Channel 4 television show, The 2ube Live and Bay TV are taking two hours of brand new music into the homes of over 380,000 viewers in the north-west of England. 

This unique proposition places new music at the top of its agenda, with The 2ube highlighting the diversity and talent of the UK music scene, showcasing some of the hottest breakthrough acts and featuring interviews and exclusive performances from special guests, with the next show scheduled for Friday March 18th.
Bay TV Liverpool is a local internet television station which was established in November 2011 and provides video on demand content with a selection of programmes streamed live.




The channel is chaired by Jack Stopforth, a former chief executive of the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce, and has been supported by Robbie Fowler, the former Liverpool F.C. footballer, and Pete Price, a radio presenter at City Talk 105.9 and Radio City 96.7.







On 21 February 2013, Bay TV was awarded a local TV license by Ofcom to broadcast a linear channel on Freeview channel 8 in the Liverpool area including Halton, Wigan and parts of Cheshire as well as being on Virgin Channel 159 Merseyside and Liverpool.
