Rockness has claimed “Best Small Festival” for the second year in a row from the NME Awards.

Facing off against the likes of Latitude, Kendal Calling, Hop Farm and Field Day, Rockness has pocketed the “Best Small Festival” award.

Jubilant Festival Director Jim King said “This is amazing. Thanks to everyone at NME and to everyone who took the time to vote for us. For those who have been to the festival before thank you so much for your support and please now spread the word. There’s something going on in The Highlands and we want you to come to our party. Out with the Old and in with the New. Bring on June, Bring on the Afterburner, Bring on Soma Records and Sub Club, Bring on the Mumfords and the Mau5. ‘mon the Biffy!. Lets wake the Monster. I can’t wait!”

And with the next announcement on it’s way, the timing couldn’t get better.

A lifelong passion for music matched with a geeky fascination for social media and websites resulted in the creation of Inverness Gigs back in 2010. The aim of the site is to help promote, support and generally raise awareness of the local music scene.In fairness fifteen years of being a psychiatric nurse never prepared me for the experiences that we have had over the last few years and the evolution of Inverness Gigs has certainly been a steep learning curve.I currently write (less and less), edit and co-ordinate most of the Inverness Gigs activities.Occasionally seen on Twitter, and LinkedIn, if you want get in touch you can contact me via our Facebook page.
